Worst flash floods in 30 years hit Timor Leste

Last month Timor Leste / East Timor suffered some of the worst floods that they have experienced in 30 years. The floods have killed more than 27 people, and have left hundreds homeless and without electricity and food.

The Kid's Ark Ministry has suffered from substantial damage. The buildings were badly damaged by the flash floods with the walls, foundations, and ceilings all needing repairs. Until these repairs are complete the buildings are not habitable.

Kid's Ark provides education, medical support, and provides programs for people with disabilities in the Hera area. The loss of these buildings will badly affect their onsite operations.

Australia Mercy is working with Kid's Ark to help with the repairs, which are likely to exceed $90,000. You can find out more about it on the Australian Mercy web-site, australianmercy.org.

YWAM Slovakia House Fire

In April one of the staff houses with YWAM Slovakia was affected by a fire. The entire wooden building burned down, including many personal and ministry items. The fire also destroyed the car that was parked at the house at the time of the fire.

YWAM Slovakia is asking us to pray and consider supporting them in their rebuilding effort. Visit ywam.sk to find out how.

The Need for Bible Translation

“There are approximately 7,100 living languages spoken on earth today. As I write this introduction there are some 1,600+ living languages that still do not have a single verse of the Scriptures translated. These 1,600+ languages need to be translated to reach zero.” David Hamilton, Youth With A Mission.

Over on the Frontier Missions web-site you can read many stories of how God is working in the nations through Youth With A Mission. One such story is about people who have no written language, and no Bible translation.
