PHILIPPINES – Clean Water for more Mangyan Communities
UPDATE: Since this post (below), we learned from Ps Danny Macuha that two other communities in Occidental (West) Mindoro have been affected by further storms, flooding and landslides over the recent weeks (Palsikayon tribal community in Brgy Pag Asa, Sablayan and Sitio Bayabasan tribal community in Brgy Pinagturilan, Sta Cruz).
Your donation, of any amount, will contribute towards the $1,000 needed for each village to re-establish their water supply in this remote Mangyan tribal region.
Over the past two months, Ps Danny Macuha (MV Philippines) and his team have been busy constructing two water tanks to supply clean water on the island of Mindoro, as ell as new places of worship for remote tribal communities.
Ps Danny reported,
“Praise God for His provision to construct a water tank for clean water projects in two Mangyan communities in Abra de Ilog and Sablayan, Occidental Mindoro.
Also, we built a chapel, because the old chapel was destroyed by a typhoon last year.”
He added,
“also we start to construct chapel in new mission work in the Mangyan community.”
All of this has been made possible, not only through the hard work of the local leaders, but also through the generous donations of MotiVate donors like you!
With your support, more than 80 families can enjoy the benefit of clean water, supplied from natural mountain sources.
Until now, communities such as these suffered with water-borne diseases such as cholera – leading to serious illness, and sometimes, tragically, fatalities among young children.
Now, with Easter fast approaching, our national leaders across the Philippines are planning camps, VBS and sports outreach for approx 1,000 youth from churches and communities across Mindoro, Cebu and Mindanao …
These activities have proven to be highly effective in teaching young people about the truth about Jesus from God’s Word – in a fun, safe environment away from wordly distractions.
While the churches are doing what they can to support these precious young people, and enable them to travel to the camp venues, your donation – of any amount – will help greatly towards the cost of meals and accommodation.
Thank you for being a part of raising up a new generation of young people who, we pray, will impact not only the nation of the Philippines, but the nations also, in the years to come!
