Typhoon Ondoy and our new mission!

You’ve probably already heard and seen much on the news about typhoon ‘Ondoy’ (or ‘Ketsana’). It is reported to be worse then Hurricane ‘Katrina’ in the US and its devastation much more widespread.

Here in the mission centre, we are blessed to be protected. But all the same, our hearts go out to the survivors of the flood, many of whom are still living in what is left of their homes, many still flooded.

On the first day, we were at a relief centre, packing rations & toiletries, forming assembly lines to fill the vehicles so that these can be distributed.

We have been ministering to a place in Montalban (now known as Rodriguez) in Erap City for the last few years. And this place is not easily accessible with only one road in and out. And immediately, we wanted to bring as much as we can to Montalban. In faith, we started purchasing the bare basic rations. We have already spent S$2000 for 300 packages so far, and there is so much more needed for these families.

We appeal on behalf of these families who have basic needs to be met.
We appeal to your generosity.

As one missionary said after a day’s work of handing out rations in the rain ‘I have often wondered what I can do to help when I see these disasters happen on tv, but today I had the rare opportunity to work help in the areas of devastation to bring relief and hope with these packages.’
