Dear friends,
The following is a copy of an email that a Pastor friend from Cihuatlan, Jalisco, MX., sent to us this week.
His village, as well as the children's home in Manzanillo, are in dire need of supplies.
"Martha and I say hello, our house and we are safe thanks.
We appreciate so much your willing to help, anyway or other the city has been beaten, everybody has been impacted by the consequence of this hurricane, which was not strong in its winds but a lot in water.
The banana sowing is lost and with it all those people jobs, the river got overflow and the flood was from the downtown street and everybody down there lost, houses, bussines, schools, entertainment, even my job the tennis courts.
The help hasn´t stopped from coming everywhere to the city, goverment, families, states from México but this will last sometime to return normal. we are day by day getting back to normality as possible.
The help to the church has come too, and we´ll see more next week from our church in Manzanillo.
-Yes we need more bibles.
-The most needed things are tinned food, milk, cereal, rice, beans, cookies, cleanliness stuff.
-We need some money, our sound equipment got wet and needs to be repared.
-No need for clothing this has already been supplied.
I look forward to see you soon
César"
Bruce and I will be in Manzanillo for a week and will be taking books, bibles and buying other supplies once we get there. Please pray as we go!
Hugs and Blessings,
Lisa Marie
