When Disaster Strikes ...



In this photo (left) Peruvians hard-hit by the August earthquake clamor for help. Many of them have lost everything they owned in a matter of minutes! The photo on the right shows all that remains of an Assembies of God church building.

August has not been good to many parts of our world! Here on the home front Convoy of Hope’s Domestic Disaster Team is shipping help to the Midwest – hard-hit by flood waters from Minnesota to Ohio.

Overseas, the International Team is responding to cries for help from Peru (earthquake), India, Nepal and Bangladesh (Typhoons). The Global Food Project has responded with an open-hand (Deut. 15:7-8), but these disasters, along with our normal ministries around the world, have left our resources depleted.

As the Lord directs and enables you, please send what you can to help us help the hungry and hurting souls overseas!
