What We Do – Our Primary Goal
ADRN’s primary goal is to serve Christ by sponsoring families affected by disaster through our Disaster Relief Shepherd Program. Responding to offer relief following crises, ADRN provides survivors with immediate financial assistance, emergency housing and transportation, emotional and spiritual care and connects families with vital resources. Additionally, ADRN organizes volunteer efforts in the cleanup/muck out of homes, coordinates volunteer labor with partnering agencies like Christian Aid Ministries (CAM), and offers funding to complete the rebuilding/repair of homes affected through their sponsorship program.

Sponsor Families of Disaster
ADRN’s network of churches sponsors families and individuals of disaster through the Disaster Relief Shepherd program. Trained volunteers within the church walk alongside survivors to assist them as needed until they are back on their feet and into their homes.
Preparedness Training
ADRN has trained, prepared and equipped thousands of volunteers to be ready to respond quickly in the event of disaster. Training is provided in various areas of support including CISM, CERT, HAM Radio Communications, Chaplaincy, First Aid, Spiritual Readiness and more.
Training and Certifications
Through ADRN’s training program, volunteers and individuals may become certified in various nationally recognized disaster-response programs. Internal training pathways are based on the skill set and volunteer direction of each individual. Credentials are then used to build teams of trained volunteers ready to respond to the need in times of crisis. Click here to read more about our training opportunities.
Prayer
