An earthquake happened October 29th in the North. 166 killed and at least 10,000 left homeless. On November 8th we arrived in the area to join our friends serving here. (This is the exact day Joe arrived in country 3 years earlier to help with the earthquake of 2005) We distributed heaters, water holders (non technical term for something that holds water), and a couple of other essentials. Today we are consulting with one community about clearing their land in preparation to re-build in the spring. I have had the opportunity to sit and "be" with the women and children which they often say is a neglected need after a disaster. We continue to feel blessed to be here and to be available to serve in so many different capacities.
