Typhoon Pics and Some Extras

 I have a few pics I collected off the internet to show you Typhoon Bopha.  Please pray for those who lost homes, loved ones and who are still recovering their livelihood.

 Many people depend on the agriculture for their income.  This was all destroyed.

 Food hard to come by, people buried in the mud and floods.  Some still missing.  Pray for those involved in the relief efforts, including people from our church.  Pray that through this calamity many will put their hope in Jesus for salvation.  He is coming again and will rescue us from every disaster and disease forever!

 The day of the Typhoon our boys played in the mud.  There were torrential rains in our city as effects from the nearby storm.  We praise God that our family and home were kept safe, though we pray and grieve with many who suffered deeply.

 The boys like to practice being heroes and planning for emergencies.  Elijah likes to say if there is a fire "It's a good thing we have a hose!"  He decided he will help our family in a fire.  (Pictured is Malachi acting like older brother).

 Here's Luke, the innocent one-year-old.  He is just a joyful guy playing with his toys and doesn't know all the things that go on around him.  How lovely to be so trusting and peaceful!

I post this one for my mom most of all--hope you don't mind the skin!  Luke usually cries when he gets in the bath, so this was the first time he actually enjoyed it!  Yay!  Progress is made!  We are thankful to be back in our home!
