Prayer & Response for Hurricane Sandy’s Victims
Friday November 2, 2012

Please pray for the millions of victims affected by Hurricane Sandy in various regions, including Canada and the United States. Pray for comfort for those mourning the loss of loved ones, those facing the loss or severe damage of their homes, and those recovering from the trauma of the experience. Pray that aid and rescue workers will be able to reach those most in need of food, water, shelter and medical assistance, and that clean-up efforts will go smoothly.

ERDO’s partner, the Assemblies of God humanitarian relief organization Convoy of Hope, is conducting disaster response efforts in New York and New Jersey as millions of people continue to be affected by the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy.

Convoy of Hope says, “We’ve already distributed more than 150 tons of relief supplies including food, water, blankets and cleaning supplies in hard hit communities in New York’s Long Beach and Staten Island as well as Bayonne and Jersey City in New Jersey.” More supplies are en route from Convoy’s Centre in Springfield, Missouri. Working with local assemblies and church groups, by the end of the weekend Convoy of Hope expects to have distributed an additional 80,000 lbs of supplies.

Any funds received at the PAOC International Office will be forwarded to our ministry partner, Convoy of Hope.  

With thanks,

(If you would like to donate you can designate an offering at Comox Pentecostal Church and mark ERDO/SANDY on your envelope.  It will be forwarded.)
