REACH Ministries Vision

Our Mission

We emphasize a holistic disciple-making process utilizing indigenous leadership in Asia. Most staff members are self-supporting and are dedicated and gifted to lead substantial ministries. Evangelism and disciple-making occur in the workplace, in public schools and on university campuses where many students have and will become tomorrow's Christian professionals capable of making an impact on every aspect of community life. We sponsor economic projects to help the poor by creating jobs and small business opportunities in their communities.

Floods Take Tremendous Human Toll

RMI Reaches Out

 

Dear Friends,

Hundreds of people living on the southern island of Mindanao and the surrounding region in the Philippines have died from severe flooding caused by Tropical Storm Washi. The storm slammed into the island of Mindanao, a southeastern area of the Philippines rarely touched by cyclones. Residents of the Philippines have come to expect annual typhoons, but this storm, which arrived during the night of December 15, caught people by surprise.

Philippine FloodsTropical Storm Washi inflicted the worst suffering on two ports, Cagayan de Oro City and Iligan City, where whole homes and families were swept away and thousands of families were forced to flee. In addition to the hundreds of deaths, some 800 men, women and children are missing. The Philippine National Red Cross is working with government agencies, the police and the army to locate missing family members. Millions of tons of rice, pineapples and bananas — key to Mindanao's agricultural economy — have been destroyed. This loss will affect people’s livelihoods for months to come.

We ask for your prayers for these dear brothers and sisters, as well as those who do not know the Lord, whom we may be able to assist and demonstrate His love toward them. We are beginning to pack boxes to send blankets, towels, nonperishable food and clothing.

Financial aid also is desperately needed to help repair and provide shelter and purchase daily food needs. We are told by our friends living in the area that governmental assistance will come, but it has been slow and the need is overwhelming.

If you are able to help support this effort, we can assure you that 100% of your donations will go directly to the people affected. You may send financial donations directly to: Reach Ministries International, P.O. Box 2060, Orange, CA 92859. Please write “Mindinao Flood Relief” in the memo line. All donations are tax deductible. Reach Ministries International is accredited by the Evangelical Council for Financial Accountability (ECFA).
