With the initial amount of money that we sent 80 plywood sheets have been bought to build small shanty huts for 10 of the families made homeless by last weeks fire in Puntod Barangay.
Following receipt of a number of generous donations God has enabled us to send in excess of £1500 to bless those in need, which means that many more homes, and lives, can be rebuilt.
Here are a few lines from an e-mail we received from our partner in this endeavour.
You never know how great is the impact you had made to the lives of our brethren here.
Such a great legacy that will never ever forgotten. One of the fire victims, an elderly widow of 72 years old who had lost her shanty, is now grateful for the help she received through us. Without any pension, government benefits or assistance to her needs, she is comforted by our love that we had shown to her.
How I wish to personally thank you for your kindness towards the poor brethren over
here. The overwhelming joy is evident over their faces and hearts as they keep thanking God for such a wonderful expression of your help to them. We had extended them some help towards their basic needs as they had to start their lives all over again after this tragic fire.
