Bridging Together Is Underway!

Your congregation can help with this exciting project!

The first bridge build—Stoney Creek—is underway!

Mennonite Disaster Service (MDS) and Lutheran Disaster Response Carolinas (LDRC) are partnering to fund and build bridges in Western NC—and the first bridge build began on Monday, March 24, 2025!

Many families whose bridges were destroyed by Hurricane Helene need bridges to cross creeks to and from their homes. There are estimated to be over 5,000 of these private bridges needing to be replaced.

Your congregation can help with this exciting project! Explore, donate, volunteer, and use these valuable resources to spark meaningful conversations and engagement in your congregation. Learn about the Bridging Together project using the resources gathered here, invite prayers for the project, and take a special offering.

Watch this bridge-building journey as it progresses on the Bridging Together webpage.


Give today to support this Bridging Together partnership!
