On the morning of August 10, a 7.4-magnitude earthquake hit western Colombia—one of the largest in years. The number of victims continues to rise as search parties look for survivors. Gateway is working with ministry partners in the affected area to coordinate response efforts.
As a church, it’s important we have an organized response to this crisis so we can be of assistance and not a hindrance. We ask that you not travel to the affected area unless you have communicated with an organization already involved in relief efforts and they are aware of your arrival. Here’s how you can help right now.
PRAY
• Pray for God’s comfort to surround the families affected.
• Pray for the first responders to have strength as they continue serving their communities.
• Pray for healing, peace, provision, and restoration for every community impacted.
GIVE
Your donations will be given to our ministry partners helping those affected. Give to our crisis relief fund.
The name of the Lord is a strong tower; the righteous run to it and are safe. –Proverbs 18:10
Please note Gateway is not collecting tangible donations (clothes, canned food, etc.) at this time.
