On December 9th, a destructive tornado tore through Clarksville, TN, claiming the lives of 6 people, injuring dozens, and leaving 160,000 people without power. Crisis Response International promptly mobilized to Clarksville and collaborated with Riverside Church to provide relief and address the essential needs of those suffering in this crisis. CRI engaged in crucial tasks such as debris removal, recovering and processing personal items, visiting the homebound elderly, sick, and disabled, and offering pastoral care to those enduring unimaginable loss. Serving those in need, particularly in times of crisis, stands as a vital expression of love for our communities. John 13:35 states, "By this, all people will know that you are my disciples if you have love for one another." It is this love for one another that leads people to Jesus. Heartfelt gratitude to CRI responders, Riverside Church, and all volunteers for embodying the compassionate hands and feet of Jesus for the countless individuals impacted by this disaster.

CRI responded to a grieving family coping with the heartbreaking loss of their son. Arlan Coty, a 10-year-old boy, tragically lost his life in the tornado that swept through Clarksville, Tennessee. On-site, CRI assisted the family in mourning by aiding in the recovery of Arlan's belongings amidst the wreckage. In solidarity with Arlan's family, CRI is praying the words of Matthew 5:4 over them, "Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted." Dedicated to alleviating the pain of those in crisis, CRI remains committed to embodying the compassion of Jesus, serving as the hands and feet of hope in seemingly hopeless situations.

This is what CRI is all about! Being light where there is darkness Bring hope where there is hopelessness. Bring joy to those who are hurting. To be the hands and feet of Jesus

We are so excited to share the relaunching of our CRI Mission Base. These past few months have been a challenging season as we felt that God had asked us to place the CRI Base on the altar. Well, it is with great excitement to share with you that God has given us a renewed passion and vision for the CRI Base. This base will serve as a vital component for our new initiative: Operation Updraft (Training 10,000 new crisis responders by 2025). As we are excited about the new VISION, we are believing for the PROVISION to follow. At CRI, we believe that God has all the provisions required for the vision, and He loves using everyday people to meet these needs. We are believing for partners and responders who will invest in this next season harvest both spiritually and financially.
