Cuero First United Methodist
Church FLOOD RESPONSE: Summer of 1999 |
Responding to Jesus Christ's call to love one another, Cuero First United Methodist Church has opened its doors to volunteers who came to Cuero in order to help restore the dreams shattered by the flood of October 1998 which devestated Cuero. (For more information on the flood, please visit www.cuero.org/disaster).

Beginning in March, mission teams from as far north as Northwestern University came to Cuero to help restore the lives and the dreams of the people of Cuero. Many of these volunteer teams made Faith Fellowship Hall of Cuero United Methodist Church their home.
To help coordinate the efforts of these volunteers, Cuero FUMC joined other churches and civic organizations in Cuero to establish DeWitt County Cares, Inc. which is an interfaith, non-profit organization formed to provide for the effective and efficient coordination and delivery of disaster relief and recovery services to residents of DeWitt County, Texas. For more about DeWitt County Cares, visit their website at www.dewittec.net/dccares.
After arriving in Cuero and settling in at Faith Fellowship Hall, each mission
team meet with
Dale Peercy
to coordinate their efforts with DeWitt County Cares.
