The Death of a Loved One

[Christine]

Thank you all for your kind words To add to our stress we have a son in the Philippines on a mission, and finally received word on the morning of my dad's funeral that he was safe. What a relief!! One of the cities he served in for 6 months has had nearly all the structures destroyed! He only had lots of wind and rain and flooding in Iloilo
. He sent pictures of the service he is doing now - packing and loading food and supplies onto trucks for the Philippine military to take to some of the hardest hit areas. Hopefully when the areas are safe he and the other missionaries will be allowed to help clean up the destroyed areas and build new homes.
