Church Responds to
Flooding in the Philippines
The Church of
Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is providing food, water,
clothing, hygiene items and other relief supplies which are
being purchased locally and distributed to those in the
affected region. Local Church members and missionaries are
assisting with clean-up efforts. Church members in
nonaffected areas of the Philippines are mobilizing to
donate clothing and bedding as Church leaders continue to
monitor the situation.
Of the 140
confirmed fatalities, 24 Church members have been reported
dead with others still missing. The total number of members
affected by the flooding is still being assessed, however
all Church missionaries are safe and accounted for.
Fifteen Church
meetinghouses have suffered water damage, with others still
yet to be assessed.
