Our First Monsoon

It is raining like crazy still. The area
is flooding. We were told to stay home again today. There is an orange alert out and people are being evacuated. We talked to the Zone Leaders this morning and they have been out carrying people on their backs to safety in waist deep water to the church buildings. The sister Missionaries apartment is flooded and they are trying to get over here. I have been wondering what would have to happen for this to be a red alert.

At 10:00 AM a red alert was issued. Many church members have evacuated to the various church buildings throughout Manila.
