We are officially in the middle of a sever typhoon. There is widespread power outage. We can feel very strong wind as well as rain. With the generator in the compound, we are able to have some power to maintain some basic necessities.
In case any parent is worried, all of our missionaries are safely gathered in. We started moving those who are at risk (low lying lands, mudslide prone area, etc.) on Saturday evening... We have been checking with them regularly throughout the day, and will--untill the storm is over. We have cell phone communications in all the areas where the missionaries are.. For now, nothing to worry about. This storm should pass and then the clean-up will begin.
We will update as soon as regular communications are restored..Otherwise, I can check text, email, etc thru my Blackberry.... presidentcarlos@gmail.com
Your prayers are appreciated for the continued safety of our missionaries as well as the people here. Our mission happen to be in the center of the path of this storm.
Keep your heads down! We're all rooting for all of you!
