Responding to The Floods

A whole community of shanty houses
once stood here now reduced to rubble and debris.

A huge thank you to our supporters who have, so far, contributed more than £3500 to enable us to respond to the tragic flooding in Cagayan De Oro City caused by Tropical Storm 'Sendong' (international name Typhoon Washi.

This money has been passed on to our local agents who have been out most days feeding up to 400 people as well as distributing bags of groceries and clothing.

Sacks of rice and boxes of groceries  

for distribution to the needy.

'Arroz Caldo' (hot rice and chicken soup) 

for homeless flood victims.

Rebuilding and rehousing people is going to take several months so the Philippines Government now plans to build several large tent cities to provide a temporary safe environment for those who have lost their homes in the floods. One of these tent cities is to be located near Canitoan (where the House of Joshua is being built. We are therefore urgently seeking permission to send a container of tools and medical equipment to help the Canitoan Barangay Medical Centre cope with the anticipated increase in demand for their services.
