You may have heard that super typhoon Haiyan hit the Philippines on Frday morning. This storm is said to be the strongest storm in at least 30 years. It had estimated sustained winds of 195 mph and gusts up to 235 mph. I remember some of the devastation that Katrina and Sandy have caused here in the States. I can only imagine how much damage would be caused by a stronger storm in an island country where many people's homes are made of scrap metal and wood.
Please be praying for the country. It is reported that at this point at least 10,000 people are in shelters and it is unknown how many causlaties there might be. As you know, we are hoping to adopt from the Philippines but we also have family and friends who live there.
