It is important to be prepared in the event of disasters in your community. The Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) is an army of trained officials, who are ready and able to help when disaster strikes, whether it is local, statewide or on a national level. Director Fulton Sheen and the Isaiah 58:12 team will be teaching a FEMA CERT course. Sheen says they are training people for all the different scenarios that could happen.

Sheen says this is one way that individuals, local churches and groups can be prepared to help their community, should an emergency or disaster strikes. Pastor Loyd Phillips provides details.

Wednesday is the last chance  to register for the courses. For  more information log on to www.isaiah5812.org or call 521-5730
