As you already know, there is a current peace problem here in mindanao. Here in Zamboanga for example, threats and warnings are buzzing like bees. There are a lot of soldiers and policemen all over downtown and we constantly hear helicopter noises going to and fro. There is still no cause for panic, but we have to be careful because the threat is really serious. On other areas in Mindanao however, the situation is quite more serious and hard. I got a news a while ago informing that some friends from Iligan city and other parts of Lanao are experiencing the effects of being war victims. I still don't know what's the exact situation right there now, but as one of JW's we have to do something to help our brothers and sisters in faith. I learned that what they need right now is food more importantly. Some are in the evacuation areas already, others are in our local KingdomHall, but still there are others who are left in their houses because the roads going through the areas are being closed.
We are planning to help them, in any way we can. Maybe we can gather old clothes and some donations. I will personally volunteer for this, I hope it will be possible for us to help them. I don't think it's wise to go there now, but whatever help we may hand them will definitely reach to those who needs it.
