Typhoon Haiyan Relief Update

The total donated by our supporters to our Typhoon Haiyan relief appeal has now topped £10,500. A huge thank you to everyone concerned.

A second "Compassion In Action" mission team, including staff members from the house of Joshua left for Northern Cebu and the Bantayan Islands today to distribute aid to remote areas that have had little or no other support since the typhoon struck the Philippines a month ago. A further mission trip to Leyte is being planned for January.

Compassion In Action is a joint initiative involving several churches and other organisations, including Lifenet Children's Foundation, in Cagayan De Oro City. It was set up as a direct response to the urgent need to provide practical assistance to victims of this devastating storm.
