hello!
the attached photos were taken at our relief distribution in a remote village of salvacion that was greatly damaged by typhoon Yolanda. about 80% of the people in this village were declared homeless. while they were making lines to received the relief goods, I spoke to them about JESUS the only hope in their situation. their hearts are so tender to hear the Gospel after the tragic  experience with super typhoon Yolanda. with tears on their eyes, they all said the sinner's prayer as they accepted Jesus as their Lord and Savior.
we left the places, seeing a new smile of hope on their faces now that they have Jesus in their lives. Glory to God. we can never thank you enough for helping as out to do this great work of relief operation. Glory to God.

 Pastor Tim & Cherrie,
>>>
>>> the stuffs we ordered will come in tomorrow afternoon, which has to be paid right then and there or else; they gunna give it to another business group, which is so bad. Inger's bank transfer usually gets in about 3-4 banking days.  Banks in Tacloban, Leyte are still shut down; that the only way is Western Union though it's more than a 100 miles away from us. I can go on my little motorcycle to get it, as that's the only way. we need a little more than $5k to cover up those items that would come in tomorrow. please pray about it.
>>>
>>> appreciate your prayers a while ago. it recharged me in the spirit. I can never thank you enough for your love and care. love you Guys.
