Lutheran Early Response Team (LERT) Training Event, for new or renewing/reviewing volunteer certification. Enables volunteers to be received at disaster clean-up sites. Prepares groups to serve on a local team that stands ready to respond when disasters occur and when victims of storm damage need assistance. This event helps fill a gap in the number of LERT teams needed, specifically in the St. Louis, Mo. area and the surrounding counties of the Missouri District.
The $35 per-person registration fee covers supper, training materials, a certificate, and aLERT volunteer T-shirt. Your LERT Trainer will distribute the credentials and t-shirt several weeks after the class.
Doors open at 5:00 p.m., and coffee, water and soda will be available. Class starts at 5:30 pm and runs until 9:00 pm. Everyone is encouraged to come at 5:00 pm before the class for supper and fellowship, which Village will provide.
Please send registration fees to Village Lutheran Church, 9237 Clayton Rd, St. Louis, MO 63124. Please write, "LERT Training 4-24-2026" on the memo line of the check, and "LERT Training" on the envelope.
