Prayers for the Philippines

by Michael Chapman

I am asking that you remember the great people of the Philippines in prayer - as they are recovering from the devastating typhoon that just hit them. This was one of the strongest typhoons ever recorded, and the death toll continues to rise. Many are mourning the loss of loved ones, or those still missing.

We have a great number of friends from the Philippines who visit this site, and we want you to know that our thoughts and prayers are with you! You are strong and courageous, and with God's help - you will get through this - though your loss has been terrible.

To those other visitors from around the world, Catholic Relief Services has, of course, already mobilized and is requesting (and receiving!) donations for the relief efforts. Catholic Relief Services is an outstanding organization that is highly reputable, with one of the highest percentages among relief organizations of your donations going directly to aid the victims. Please go to their site and donate generously to the typhoon recovery effort in the Philippines. God bless you!
