In Typhoon Haiyan we see again

the vulnerability of humanity

to the full force of nature’s energy.We pray for all those affected:

Those who have lost loved ones,

Those who have had to witness mass burials,

Those who make up the faceless millions affected,

Those who need shelter, water, food, sanitation and medicine.We pray for the emergency response teams:

For safety and strength as they assess the damage,

For communication lines to be restored,

For a quick and effective response to their findings,

For the resources required to be made available. We pray for the long term recovery and resilience work:

That the growing intensity of typhoons would not be ignored,

That the erratic nature of recent monsoon rains would be noted,

That this vulnerable nation would not carry the challenge of climate change alone,

That the international community would respond with generosity and with justice.Amen. Bible verses   May the Lord give strength to his people.

May the Lord bless his people with peace.
Psalm 29, 10God is our refuge and strength,

A very present help in trouble.

Therefore we will not fear, though the

earth should change,

though the mountains shake in the

heart of the sea;

though its waters roar and foam,

though the mountains tremble with its tumult.
Psalm 46, 1-3
