Greetings. Guided by the wisdom of Jesus recorded in Matthew 25, the below information is provided by Mark McCain on behalf of the South Carolina Presbyterian Disaster Assistance Team. The Keeler Family has worshipped at the Black Mountain Presbyterian Church and we are most certainly familiar with the area, along with many others in the congregation, which includes the Montreat Conference Center. We are sending our contribution today in support of this effort to assist our neighbors in western North Carolina who are still recovering from Hurricane Helene. Thank you in advance for your kind and generous support.

Peace and Grace,
Steve +

Message from Black Mountain Presbyterian Church

Friends:

There is an urgent need for 1 lb. propane fuel bottles (green “Coleman” bottles for camp stoves, lanterns, heaters) for individuals impacted by Hurricane Helene in western North Carolina, especially with the winter weather currently impacting the area. Propane fueled space heaters are a primary means of minimal heat for many people. ONE 1 lb. propane bottle fuels a room size space heater FOR ONLY ONE NIGHT.

The need is great and the local region supply is non-existent.

The Presbyterian Church in Black Mountain, NC (Montreat Conference Center/Collage) is collecting and distributing relief supplies, where online propane bottle orders can be delivered.

Delivery Address for Relief Items:
Black Mountain Presbyterian Church
117 Montreat Road,
Black Mountain, NC 28711
