Update 3 - Two United Methodist pastors in Tacloban are still missing as of 7:00 pm today, Nov 13, 2013. DS David Dacaya Cosmiano
reported that their church members has not yet receive any
communication from Rev. Iris Picardal and family and Pastor Lito Luana
and family. The UMC in Tacloban was destroyed by the Supertyphoon.
Members described the city as a virtual mudwaste with a smell of death. Meanwhile, DS Cosmiano happily shared that his son Dzey-ahr Cosmiano texted them informing them that he is well.
On the otherhand, DS Irene Respuesto shared that members in Negros had
their livelihood and farm fields destroyed. The government has appealed
for support in other affected areas other than Tacloban. DS Roy Tibalbag
also shared that churches in Aklan need help but because the area do
not get enough media mileage, support has not been received. Local
government officials in Panay and Negros needs food as their supply is
also getting low. Food and non-food items donations are most welcome.
You can send your help to UMCOR or to the Office of the Bishop-DEA.
... somewhere between these two schools of thought, they intersect...
