Colleague Salvationists and friends,
Commissioner Silvia and I are praying for the people of The Philippines. Together we mourn the great loss of life and pray for those who are suffering. We take hope in a God who is faithful in times of trouble.
We thank God for the resilience of his people in The Philippines. We pray for Territorial Commander Colonel Maxwell and the officers, Salvationists and friends who have been affected by this disaster. International Headquarters stands at the ready to support the recovery efforts through the International Emergency Services office.
Please join us today and through the Worldwide Prayer Meeting on Thursday as together we lift up those who are suffering in The Philippines.
I would also invite Salvation Army donors and friends around the world to support The Salvation Army's relief effort in The Philippines by making a donation through their local Salvation Army office or through the IHQ website at: www.salvationarmy.org
May God bless you.
