Philippines: worship continues

The needs are still great in the Philippines

While residents in the Philippines struggle to get back to normality in the aftermath of Typhoon Yolanda (Haiyan), church congregations in the area are continuing to have regular worship.

Typhoon Yolanda roared through the Central Philippines in November, killing almost 4,000 people. That number is expected to rise as recovery efforts continue.

Congregations are meeting in construction sites and shells of former churches as they wait for repairs of typhoon damage. The worship offers survivors a glimpse of hope amid the devastation.
