Naga View Typhoon Disaster Fund

"WHEN CALAMITY STRUCK!!! Christmas Day 2016, in the evening, when the fury that was Typhoon Nina battered Naga View Adventist College. While stronger typhoons hit the area in previous years and the school incurred more damages, Nina was more damaging because it struck when NVAC is just starting to recover from her financial crisis. The girls dormitory extension is no longer habitable; many faculty and staff homes and almost all farm structures were damaged and/or destroyed. One cow perished and another is missing, and eleven goats are either missing or dying. Crops were badly damaged and scores of Mahogany and Pili trees were uprooted. Innumerable Pili nuts which would have been ready for harvest in a month are gone.Typhoons are full of tragedies and today is time to mourn for losses and for sadness and disappointments. And as we look at the devastation around us, we remember the song:"I'm homesick for heaven, seems I cannot wait, Yearning to enter Zion's pearly gate; There never a heartache, never a care, I long for my home over there."But today is also time to celebrate for there is no loss of human life and much more livestock survived. The LORD gives, and the LORD takes away. May the name of the LORD be blessed!" Job 1:21. The news could have been much worse. So, We are "giving thanks always and for everything" (Ephesians 5:20).Now we rebuild and start again, and calling everyone to please pray for NVAC's fast recovery." ---CFO OBED TINDUGAN.

The college is already in financial crisis and the devastation brought on by this typhoon is a double whammy on this struggling Christian school. Your help is needed.
