Kylie Syfert, coordinating efforts at the church, said the center is no longer accepting donations due to space constraints but is encouraging flood victims and those in need to visit the location to gather necessary supplies.

The church is among several organizations mobilizing to assist residents displaced or affected by Friday’s catastrophic flooding that has killed 27 people and left 38 others missing.

Other relief efforts include the Community Foundation of the Texas Hill Country’s Kerr County Flood Relief Fund and Southern Baptists of Texas Convention Disaster Relief, which is providing meals and shelter through First Baptist Church, Kerrville.

For those seeking supplies, Cross Kingdom Church is located on Junction Highway at the Goat Creek Cutoff intersection.
