Last September, Hurricane Georges hammered the Caribbean and our world missions located there. Juana Antonia of the Dominican Republic lost her entire house and all her belongings to the river. She is standing where her house used to be before the hurricane. With help from money she received from the WELS Committee on Relief, she was able to find a place on higher ground. Our churches in Puerto Rico, a country also hit by the hurricane, even had a clothing drive and sent canned food and clothing to the Dominican Republic. The Committee on Relief sent $35,000 to the Dominican Republic, Puerto Rico, Haiti, and Antigua. They also sent $60,000 to Nicaragua and Honduras after Hurricane Mitch hit in November. If you want to send contributions, specify which fund and send it to Committee on Relief, 2929 N Mayfair Rd, Milwaukee WI 53222.
