Widespread flooding caused by months of heavy rains in Colombia have affected nearly 1 million people.

Close to 90 percent of the crops have been destroyed by the flooding and this is greatly worsening the food crisis.

The flooding is occurring far from our work, and no Compassion-assisted children have been affected.

Please pray for the Lord's continued protection of our children, staff and families. Also, please pray for those who have lost loved ones or homes in this flooding.

Compassion Colombia will keep us updated as more information is available.

Compassion International will contact you if your sponsored child has been affected.
