The worst natural disaster in recent history in Asia.

This flooding has affected more people than the tsunami of 2004 and the Haiti earthquake put together. Over  1500 people have died and between 16 to 20 million people (that's roughly half the population of Canada) are homeless and have lost everything they had. One fifth of the counry is under water. Take a look at the GFA website to learn more and see photos. Please pray for these people and give as the Lord leads you. Pray that as these people are helped, they will also hear the gospel and receive Christ.  There is lots of water but it is not safe to drink. Children are beginning to get sick from drinking the water and dying. This could be the beginning of an epidemic due to the disease-filled water. Please pray!

The Traveller is home!

Dylan arrive home today at about 5:15 pm. The plane landed a few minutes late at about 3:48 pm. There was a group of us at the airport awaiting his arrival to greet him and Cassandra who was the other Canadian on the team. They bother looked very good and healthy. It doesn't seem yet that there is much jet lag. He has many stories to tell and many pictures and videos to show. I'm sure there will be some pictures to come.
