Keeping you informed about The Readiness Project

Did you know in January 2011, within two hours of the Congresswoman Gifford shooting in Tucson, AZ local churches, Family Life Radio and local journalists had a working command center in place less than a mile away from the shooting site? And, FBI and other federal and local law enforcement agencies were amazed at how seamlessly they were able to plug into the process? They said they had never seen anything like this before. Imagine the impact your media outlet could have if it were to have or be a part of a process that could have an immediate impact for Christ.

The Readiness Project is a grassroots effort to assess the biblical readiness of Christian churches, ministries and media for disaster response. Just as leaders like Family Life Radio President, Dr. Randy Carlson, made a commitment to respond with other organizations in the Tucson incident using the airwaves, leaders like ASSIST News along with 400 print outlets are using CEN Alerts and News to prepare Christians to respond every day. And, over 50 national radio networks are using CEN PSA’s and interviews to rally the Church by asking: "Are you ready to respond in crisis?"

Add your name to the list of Christian media outlets who have agreed to assess their level of biblical readiness and make a commitment of resources, volunteers, facilities or services to respond.

Christian Emergency Network (CEN) provides services for the Christian media to rally the Church to become biblically ready to respond in times of crisis large or small. Public Information Officer training and resources are provided before, during, and after crises to encourage church and community preparedness, a unified Christian response, timely accurate information on occurring disasters, and response praise reports.
