Typhoon updates

I don't have a lot of time on the computer right now. We are experiencing power for the first time in about 6 days, which means everyone is in line to do email and such. Just so you all know, the Philippine experienced a catagory 3 typhoon this past week. It was so crazy to see masive billbords in Manila fallen onto buses, squatter villages and such. There were over 100 deaths and more injuries.
We are now on Puerto Galera, which at first glance is a beautiful island but once you look a little deeper it is a very dark place. On the boat ride over we were shocked with the amount of older white men with young Philippino prostitutes. My first reaction was anger toward those men, and then I started praying for them and my heart just broke for them. What kind of sadness must you live in to resort to such measures for affection? Come Jesus!
Shawn is doing rounds in the clinics here as well as home visits. I will be leading a prayer walk through the red light district tonight.
I will write more later. Please continue to pray for our team. We had our first experience with death this week as one of the medics helped a drouning victim. Pray for them as the process through this.
Marie and Ellie are very well. We are currently living with Ian and Rose Penwell, who have a 3 year old girl as well. So, Marie has a buddy!
