Typhoon Update! Dec. 16th, 2015

Dear Friends and Family!

On December 16th, 2015, Typhoon “Melor” (aka. “Nona”) came right on top of us (Tuesday) at 3 am, with 120 mph winds and left a huge path of destruction behind.

We are ok, praise the LORD!

Our village was severely damaged, but no lives were lost! Many of the houses have been destroyed and need to be rebuild from ground up…

We lost power Monday evening around 10pm and it probably will be out for few days… Many crews of men are clearing downed trees and debris from the electrical lines…please pray!

We get our drinking water form a shallow well across the street, but without power we can not pump it to our house and filter it…also, we do not know at this time if the water- or power lines, coming fro-&-to the well, are ok or damaged…Please pray!

We are running a small generator for 4-5 hours a day, to keep our fridge cold, but are low on fuel… ATMs are off line and we do not have access to funds at this moment to buy groceries and needed fuel for the generator (our pantry is stocked well, though… Please pray!

Our internet connection is slow or not working at all, so we might not be able to send any updates for some time…but we will keep trying…

Also, please pray for how we can help our neighbors in need, in a God honoring way. We need much wisdom in this regards, because of the cultural expectations (jealousy, corruption, etc.)…

 

Please continue to pray for us!
