<p>As you can imagine, it has been difficult to get reports out of the Philippines.&nbsp; The storm has just recently left the northern Luzon region.&nbsp; Typhoon Parma actually hit the region three times.&nbsp; The entire region was inundated with more inches of rain than can easily be counted and winds of 145 mph.&nbsp; </p>
<p>The damage report is good considering the type of storm that hit.&nbsp; It was called a "Super Typhoon."&nbsp; We are thankful that none of our kids or staff were injured in any way and damage to the North Campus properties was minimal.&nbsp; Extra funds will be needed to cover the costs of repairs and extend help to those more impacted by the storm.</p>
<p>The bigger tragedy might be next.&nbsp; All of the crops in the region were destroyed and this is a vital farming area for the entire nation.&nbsp; Also, contaminated water is everywhere.&nbsp; Rivers continue to flood and landslides are tearing out roads and bridges.&nbsp; Transportation will be hampered for some time.&nbsp; There are great concerns for the health of residents in northern Luzon and of course Manila.&nbsp; Malaria and other deceases are caused and exacerbated by floods especially when it carries raw sewage with those flood waters.&nbsp; PLEASE PRAY!</p>
