Pray for the Philippines

Last week the Philippines was hit with a super typhoon--a category 5--that wreaked havoc across the Philippines. Please be in prayer for this country!


One of our correspondents, Earl John, lives in the Philippines. Thankfully as more news has been received about the typhoon, it sounds like his province of Palawan was not severely hit! For that we praise God!


If you would be interested in sponsoring a child from the Philippines, a child who could use encouragement in the midst of this national struggle, click here.


Compassion shared this wonderful post: Pray for the Philippines, where they shared prayer requests from staff in the Philippines. And you can both learn more about the disaster and can donate towards the relief efforts here.

I also love Samaritan's Purse and their relief efforts. You can check out what Samaritan's Purse is doing by checking out their page here.


And above all, please pray! Please pray for our brothers and sisters in the Philippines and for many to come to know God through the midst of this tragedy.
