Flood Relief for the Philippines

Dear Friends,

 

Relief aid for victims of the floods in the Philippines

 

As you are aware that the Philippines was recently hit by a series of typhoons recently, the latest being Typhoon Vamco, where many have died, and hundreds of thousands have been evacuated.

 

Pst Jose Laquihon Reyes, a good friend of mine and a Haggai alumni, is coordinating relief aid for the victims, especially those hit in the coastal areas. Together with his church, they are doing all they can to show the love of Jesus to the victims in these desperate times and also share the good news of Jesus.






I have many pictures to show that the need is genuine. I know Pastor Reyes well and he is a good man. 

 

Here's the overview of the flood victims ONLY in the coastal areas we are ministering to (we cannot handle all). 

 

1. Brgy. SAMPIRUHAN Evacuation centers 

 

A. Cardinal Covered Court - 165 families or/ - 616 individuals

B. Multi-Purpose Hall - 75 families or/ - 249 individuals 

 

TOTAL 1 = 240 families/865 pax 

 

2. Brgy. PALINGON Evacuation Centers: 

 

A. Elementary School Campus - 71 families or/ - 248 individuals 

B. High School Campus - 269 families or/ - 959 individuals 

C. Covered Court - 66 families or/ - 288 individuals 

 

TOTAL 2 = 406 families/1,495 pax

 

3. Sitio RONGGOT Situation in Sito Ronggot residential area and evacuation center 

1. Lecheria Elem. School Evacuation Center - 34 families or/ - 131 individuals 

 

GRAND-TOTAL 680 families (2,491 pax)

 

The flood situation is expected to last for about 2-3 months and in the meantime, these victims need food supplies, clean water, health/hygiene amongst others. I know times are hard even in Singapore due to Covid19 but let’s trust God and help those who are in desperate need. I am trying to raise about Sing 10,000 to sow into the lives of these victims to meet their basic needs. Any amount is welcomed.

 

Please contact me if you want to be part of this project. May God bless you and your household as you consider partnering with us in this project.

Remembering Sis Jenima Sharma - A tribute

Image
Sis Jenima went to be with the Lord on 14 Nov 2024, after battling with  Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) for some time.  This is our tribute to her. It was in 2008, when I first met Sis Jenima, the wife of our Bishop Samuel Sharma. It was during our first trip to NE India, Jaigaon in particular. We were there to conduct a pastors' conference at the bidding of Bishop Samuel who had attended the Haggai Leaders' Experience in Singapore a few months earlier. This was the beginning. She was demure, quiet, hardly spoke a word in English. But she was extremely hospitable and genuinely kind. At that time they lived in a very simple house, with hardly any furnishing, all because of the call of God upon her life to serve the Master.  But one thing was certain. She loved the Lord, her husband and her two young children. She always wanted them to serve the Lord all their lives. She was a remarkable woman whose life reflected the love and grace of God in every aspect.  He...

Devotion - Psalms 44: 6-7 - Its God who gives the victory

Image
Psalms 44:6-7 - I put no trust in my bow, my sword does not bring me victory; but you give us victory over our enemies, you put our adversaries to shame. Any soldier will know that the basic weapon of warfare, in those days, were the bow and sword. Without which no soldier will not venture into the battle field. Even the famed Goliath was geared in full battle order when he faced David with the stones and the sling. Isn't it a paradox then that David, one of the finest soldiers Israel had ever produced, proclaims that its not the bow and the sword that gives the victory. Its is the Lord, Jehovah, that gives the victory. I don't think David is trying to say that we should not prepare ourselves for warfare. His concern is that we recognize that ultimately its the Lord that gives the victory. A few things we need to remember: Human efforts are necessary in the God-man partnership Human efforts alone does not guarantee God intended results Recognize that its God that always gives u...

25th Wedding Annivesary - Silver Jubilee

Image
11-1-11 - 25th Wedding Anniversary. Today my wife and I celebrate our Silver Jubilee, 25 years of being married together. How time flies. I look out of the window, the weather reminiscent of the day we got married. It was raining the whole day and so is today. How appropriate. Praise God for His faithfulness in our lives and for the blessings He has given us. Lam 3:22-23 - Because of the LORD’s great love we are not consumed, for his compassions never fail. They are new every morning; great is your faithfulness. It has been a wonderful journey. Yes there were disagreements, quarrels, desperation and even "fights" but through it all, our love has grown stronger for the Lord , for the family, for the ministry and for one another. Jeya has been the magnet that holds our family together. Almost three months in a year I am out of country for ministry and kids busy in school. But she has always been the inventory holder that keeps reminding of the things that needs to be done an...
