the scene by the office
Manila was hit by the recent tropical storm named Ketsana which dumped rain in the area for as long as nine hours leaving coworkers and friends stranded on the roofs of their houses. Reported water levels rose to twenty feet in the city and neighboring provinces. The office stated the storm resulted in the heaviest rainfall recorded since 1967.
The losses to our friends and coworkers there have been heavy, but gratefully no one was injured that we knew. Please pray for all those who have lost some or all of their belongings including important official documents. Write us to ask how you might help!
