Repair of rented house and construction of warehouse in San Jose was done on the April2-April17 time period

For the past two days (April 26 & 27), Proj. Manager Glenn, together with Arnel Parco and their survey team, surveyed the area for house owners whose houses’ roofs could probably be rebuilt or renovated by the CCM relief construction team. The picture above is in Brgy. 89 San Jose, Tacloban City. This community is only approximately less than 40-50 meters from the sea and is only around 100 meters away from the CCM Relief Center in San Jose.

Due to difficulties in reconstructing their own houses’ roofs, residents use tarpaulins as alternative house roofs

This is the Tent City of San Jose for 60 percent of the community is on tent houses.

•A number of children spending their time playing in the community

•Some women are taking care of their children, some are just spending their hours outside their unrepaired houses

After surveying the place and interviewing residents, the survey team lead by Glenn Manuel, learned that it became common for children to suffer from cough and colds.

Based from the observations of the survey team, there are a lot of kids in the area. Ptr. Jovert, Ptr. Lindo and Bro. Danny suggested that this is an opportunity to conduct feeding program, provide school supplies and conduct, if possible, DVBS.

The community is receptive with our efforts which will give us an easy way to preach the gospel in the area.
