Yet others lost everything. The island is completely devastated-church members lost their homes, and you could find boats and furniture strewn all over the island. <em><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">While Malapascua is not receiving a lot of media attention, the eye of the storm passed right over them. Our church will be focusing our resources to help these people on Malapascua Island.<\/span> Many of you have contacted us and asked if you could help.<\/em> If you want to help you can send money to Travis Lewis at Word for the World&#8230;marked Philippine Disaster Relief Fund. The address is P.O. Box 849 Rossville, Georgia 30741-0849. The phone number is 706-866-8826. Pastor Travis is our missionary partner in Cebu. He shares our burden to help the Filipino&#8217;s through this crisis!<strong> 100 percent of what you send will help these people rebuild their lives<\/strong>. We sent our first load of supplies on Monday. Our next shipment will leave for Malapascua on Thursday and then again on Friday. <strong><em><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">People need food, water, medicine, and basic hygiene necessities. We want to help these survivors get back on their feet. As we minister to their physical needs we will also look for ways to minister to their souls. Please keep praying that many would come to know Christ! <\/span><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In these past few days we have seen unfathomable damage across the Philippines.
