learned about DART at Samaritan's Purse. I thought, <strong>\u201cYou can get paid to do this type of work?\u201d<\/strong> The Lord had given me a desire to meet people at ground zero of devastation, and here was an organization that had a mission to do exactly that\u2014and I wanted to be part of it!<\/p>\r\n\r\n                                                        <p>I was hired to specialize in skilled trades and construction management. In true DART fashion, my first four deployments were in something different. In my case, it was finance. I now work as the operations supervisor for the IMT in Boone. While praying through taking my current role, a mentor shared an analogy with me. He described a sailboat tied to a dock with someone looking at it and saying, <strong>\u201cGive me the map and tell me where to go Lord, and I will do it. I am ready.\u201d<\/strong>  My mentor said that sometimes you just have to prepare, get into the boat without a map, shove off the dock, put up the sail, and allow the wind of the Spirit to guide&nbsp;you.<\/p>\r\n\r\n                                                        <blockquote class=\"space-small\">\r\n                                                            <p><i>&ldquo;Commit your way to the LORD; trust in Him, and He will&nbsp;act.&rdquo;<\/i><\/p>\r\n                                                            <footer>\r\n                                                                <cite>Psalm 37:5 (ESV)<\/cite>\r\n                                                            <\/footer>\r\n                                                        <\/blockquote>\r\n\r\n                                                        <p>When we deploy to a disaster, we often have no idea what the Lord has for us there. We go trusting that He will do the work and make His Name great. We go prepared, having planned and trained for multiple circumstances, but we still have to trust Him for the results. Every single aspect of a DART response, however mundane, is an act of worship where we exercise our gifts and talents for His glory. Be prepared by living as a faithful follower of Christ, and when the time comes, get in the boat, push off the dock, raise the sail, and humbly worship as the Lord guides&nbsp;you.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

Samaritan's Purse airlifted over 150 tons of critically needed supplies aboard our 767 cargo plane on multiple flights. Items included kitchen kits, family tents, blankets, jerry cans, tarps, and solar lights. In addition, emergency health kits were delivered to clinics and hospitals that can serve up to 10,000 people for three&nbsp;months.<\/p>\r\n\r\n                                                        <p>DART is collaborating with partners to assess the evolving humanitarian situation and to explore additional ways to expand the response for those affected by the crisis.
