God’s Pit Crew’s Immediate Response team will deploy Tuesday, December 12, from headquarters in Danville, Virginia, and travel to Clarksville, Tennessee, and surrounding areas to help victims of the catastrophic storm that left multiple fatalities and dozens injured in its wake. Once on location, the highly-trained volunteers and staff will begin working in the hardest-hit areas.
God’s Pit Crew semi-trucks and haulers equipped with chainsaws, tarps, and heavy equipment will be on hand to clear debris and cut and remove trees. Other tractor-trailer loads containing emergency relief supplies such as pallets of water, Gatorade, and Blessing Buckets are also headed to Tennessee to provide additional aid. Blessing Buckets are five-gallon buckets containing non-perishable food, water, hygiene items, first-aid kits, Bibles, and handwritten notes of encouragement.
God’s Pit Crew President Randy Johnson spoke of the scene saying,“The destruction caused by this deadly line of storms is widespread and tragic. We continue to pray for all impacted and are ready to begin working to help the survivors.”
Response by the God’s Pit Crew ministry would not be possible without the outpouring support provided by volunteers and donors. “We can’t thank the people that support our organization enough. Everyone who volunteers and donates to our relief responses helps our mission of providing hope and healing be a true possibility,” said Johnson.
As the ministry looks to restock their inventory of Blessing Buckets to keep responding and providing the much-needed materials to survivors, anyone interested in sponsoring a Blessing Bucket – which cost $35 per bucket to fill – or to support their ongoing immediate disaster response efforts is encouraged to visit GodsPitCrew.org or call (434) 836-4472.
