Greene County EMA asking churches to open as warming shelters

GREENE CO. – Churches are ideal warming centers. With the sudden winter storm, Greene County EMA
Director Roger Axe is requesting the county churches of the county to open warming shelters from 6:00 a.m. tonight until 8:00 a.m. Friday, December 24th

“Because Greene County is a rural county it could be safer for people to travel to churches in time of need,” said Axe. “What better way to express the meaning of Christmas than to extend a helping hand to those in dire need? “

If your church will open a warming center, please contact Greene County EMA at greene-jeans@sbcglobal.net.
