Flooding in Pakistan

Monsoon rains have resulted in the worst flooding in Pakistan’s history, impacting 20 million people. The floods have washed away food stored until next harvest; has flooded/ruined crops in the field; has ruined seed for next planting season this fall; and has fields inundated to impact ability to plant. It has also washed away homes and flooded cities. Pray for the rains to stop and disease to be held at bay; and for the love of Christ to be evident. EFCA Crisis Response has been in contact with a partner missionary who is associated with a local ministry work in Punjab, Pakistan. Funds have been sent to supply tents for displaced victims. Crisis Response has started to initiate contacts with other partner ministries and relief organizations.
