Rice

Typhoon Megi (Juan)
All the world over, farmers' livelihoods are affected by the weather. Here, the typhoon wiped out 50-75% of the peoples' rice harvest.

 Rice is only planted once a year, a portion of the previous year's crop is kept back for seed.

 Everyone salvaged what they could and will be faced with some tough decisions come planting time. We hope to get some government assistance for them, and will also be assisting them through the gifts of people like you. 

Please be in prayer with us for wisdom and direction. Pray that we would show the love of Christ and one day tell the people that He is the bread (rice) of life.
