Relief Updates

One night, while distributing food, our team came across an elderly man who had not eaten in days. As they served him a warm meal, his eyes filled with tears of relief as he murmured “I thought I would never eat again”. Another family expressed deep gratitude as they had After immediate hunger needs were addressed, the team started distributing medicines and dry rations and of course taking time to pray with each family. They watched as God brought hope and joy into this community. 

Many of them lost their homes and churches, some even lost their families. This was the case for one young boy who lost both of his parents at the hands of a violent mob as they were fleeing the city. Another family took the young boy, adopting him as their own. However, as the weeks went by and food supply ran low they grew concerned that they would not be able to feed him. When our team came to distribute dry rations the father told them “We were ready to go hungry, but what about the boy? How could we let him starve?”. Now, with a food pack full enough to last them for two months, hope was restored in their hearts once again.

So far, we have been able to successfully distribute dry rations and medicines to 2,000 people. 30 volunteers gathered together to help get these supplies to those in need. However, they were not just meeting practical needs, they were also bringing hope and the assurance that God is still with this community in the depth of their hardship.

The six-day medical and dental camp in Northern Pakistan was a great success. The dedicated team of 15—comprising teachers, doctors, nurses, and dentists—traveled to five remote villages that had never been reached before to hold free medical and dental clinics as well as do some children's outreach. Over the course of the camp, we had the honor of impacting 10,000 lives! In one of these villages, we witnessed an extraordinary move of the Holy Spirit, touching the hearts of many. Astonishingly, even the local imam experienced this powerful transformation! But that's not all—God's miracles were on full display. One remarkable story is of a man who regained sight in his previously blind eye and accepted Jesus as his Lord and Savior. The team witnessed numerous salvations and divine interventions throughout the camp. It is always inspiring to minister and watch God move while also meeting immediate practical needs. Together, we are bringing hope, healing, and faith to places that need it most!

Earlier this year the Children’s home in Kalonga collapsed. We thank God that no one was hurt in the collapse as all of the children were out tending to the gardens at the time. However, it still left 60 orphans without a home. Members of the local church housed these children during the rebuilding process but this was not a long term solution. Thanks to the Impact Family, the home was rebuilt in two months! Now all of the children have returned back home.

Just 24 hours after we received news of massive flooding in the Philippines, the Impact Nations Family was distributing 6,000 meals to help families survive until the local government reaches them with additional aid.

Our friends in the Philippines have just completed a 4 day trip to distribute water filters in Southern Leyte. Eight villages received 129 water filters. This means that 1,290 households are now enjoying safe and clean drinking water.

The Impact Nations family just provided another 200 filters to be distributed in the district of Leyte in the Philippines. Leyte was hit very hard by a Typhoon in December and these filters are empowering communities to rebuild without having to fear their drinking water. During our first trip a few weeks ago, one civil planning officer took time to make a video thanking you for your impact.
