Pastor Richard Farris
Foursquare Missions International Emissary to Foursquare Disaster Relief
Get to know the mission.
Foursquare Disaster Relief (FDR) serves those affected by natural disasters, diseases or war worldwide by partnering with local churches, providing spiritual care and meeting physical needs.
Whether it is a fire, tornado, flood or earthquake, FDR connects churches with resources to assist individuals in their time of need. The world's convulsions and food shortages come from many different problems, and FDR is not there to assess where the blame lies but to help rescue people in their time of need and help provide the needed resources to meet their immediate needs. Pastor Richard works as a volunteer in the international arena as an advanced lead and in the domestic context as a team lead. I have assisted in food crises in Burundi, South Sudan, Indonesia, India, and many others, as well as domestic wildfires and hurricanes. People need each other, and it is the goal of FDR and my personal goal to help provide the resources that help individuals make it through the struggle. Ultimately, I pray that they find Jesus.
