When crisis strikes, ReachGlobal Crisis Response is committed to spiritual, emotional and physical transformation. We work to rebuild lives and communities by sharing the love of Christ—through the ministry of a local church, to multiply disciples and disciplemakers.

Paula and Ryan have multiple roles within Crisis Response. Ryan serves on the Crisis Response leadership team, and Paula and Ryan both serve the greater Crisis Response team in remote administrative roles. Ryan and Paula are serving locally as leaders for the Morehead City, North Carolina Response site. Starting in 2023, our North Carolina site has transitioned from hurricane recovery ministry to focusing exclusively on opportunities to share the love of Christ in the wake of broken relationships and damaged lives caused by substance abuse addiction. Our goals are threefold: to build relationships and disciple locally with those struggling with addiction and those in recovery, to come alongside One Harbor Church providing additional manpower and resources for their already successful and growing addiction ministry, and lastly to develop, empower and release the EFCA and other churches through teams and learning labs, to minister to those struggling with addiction in their own communities.
