Welcome to Bridges of Love

Of Churches, Pandemics, and Emergency Preparedness
Dr. Tim Foggin & Marg Pollon

Four years ago, a BC Physician, Dr. Tim Foggin invited Bridges of Love to join in mobilizing Canadian Churches, to be prepared with a response to a Pandemic Influenza. Pandemic Preparedness is a vehicle for connecting the church with the community. Being prepared for a Pandemic is being prepared for any Emergency, demonstrating the love of Christ, within your community. This discussion paper (GUIDE) is intended as a starting point for your Pandemic Preparedness Plans.

Of Church, Pandemics and Emergency Preparedness Brochure

We have had a little introduction to a Pandemic Influenza with the out-break of the H1N1. We have been very fortunate that the virus has not been as virulent as had been previously predicted. We have been touched by the potential threat of such a disaster, however, so it is only good planning to keep preparing for any disaster which might occur. We know pandemics can occur again, so please do not give up the quest to have yourself, family, church or ministry prepared with a Christian response as we care for one another and our community.
