What We've Seen Today...

While making our way through Cainta, we saw people shoveling mud out of their second story windows...

We saw that a Shell gasoline station's convenience mart was completely covered with mud to the top of its roof. You would not have been able to perch there to avoid the water although all ground around it is now dry...

Lines of 50+ cars at dozens of car dealers along our route trying to get needed repairs... most of them looking like they were pulled from mud pits...

A large convoy of US military vehicles were making their way out of a hard hit area, undoubtedly on their way to get more supplies. It was just different to see all the blond haired soldiers...

Another funeral procession with a little casket and a weeping family including mom, brothers and sisters...

While standing in line at a grocery store to buy more supplies, watching people buy whatever they can afford, some using cans and jars of coins as they prepare for the possible 6 days of storms and rain that are en route...

It is now 5:07pm on October 2. Reports say that the power company will start turning off power in the riskier areas of Manila starting at 7pm. The media is encouraging everyone to get to their safe homes and evacuate their unsafe homes NOW.

A few of our volunteers are still helping people from the current flood but they are now staying close to where they need to be... We need to live and be healthy for the next round.

Thank you for your prayers!!! This new storm is no longer considered a Super Typhoon but it is considered a Slow Mover... slow movers deposit more rain then fast movers... Please pray for light rain and for the storm to move fast! God answers prayer!!!
