Colombia is experiencing its second season of heavy rain. The recent rain and strong winds have affected several cities along the coast. So far, 87 participants and their families have been affected; many of their homes sustained roof damage and flooding. The Child Development Centers (CDCs) have been able to use disaster relief funds to supply materials to rebuild some of the houses. They will continue to assess the situation and provide help as needed.

Please pray for the affected participants and their families as they recover from the flooding.
