This grateful and happy family really like their new home, where they can be dry even when it rains. Their home before had many holes in the roof and walls. When it rained, they often went to the church to sleep. The house was in terrible condition and was destroyed last July when Typhoon Glenda moved through the area. Several homes of FCM sponsored children in the city were completely destroyed. Gifts you sent for "disaster relief" made it possible to buy materials to rebuild the homes.
You have been so generous when we have informed you of special needs such as this. A few people give regularly into our "disaster relief" fund. Having money set aside in a special fund for such emergencies, makes it possible for us to respond quickly in an emergency. In times of disaster, there are immediate needs for drinking water, food, shelter and medicines. Other needs come later. More than once we have been able to get money to our local pastors very soon after such a disaster. This happens because you give. Thank you. We hope it blesses you to know that you are a blessing in times of great need.
