Faith Baptist is the home of Maryland/Delaware Recovery Unit 1. The unit is owned by our regional association and is part of the national Southern Baptist Disaster Relief ministries. This unit was commissioned on 2002 and since then members of Faith and our sister churches in the Blue Ridge Baptist Association has responded to over 30 disasters in 10 states along the eastern seaboard of the US. Our unit can conduct chainsaw operations in tornados and hurricanes, flood recovery operations, and can make emergency temporary repairs to damaged roofs and and windows. Participation in this ministry requires special training and a through background check. Southern Baptist Disaster Relief is recognized by FEMA and partners with the Red Cross and Salvation Army on major disasters.
