When it was over, I just sat, feeling happy and full.
And I can't stop thinking about this, especially:
"Many of those donating have houses that were also flooded, but knowing there were others whose houses were completely destroyed, they gathered what was left and shared them with those in greater need. Some left their flooded homes and cared for those sheltered in meetinghouses, or visited fellow members' homes to check on their condition.
...
In the northern province of Pangasinan, where typhoon Chan Hom made landfall last May 7, members — many still living in makeshift houses or staying with relatives — surprised their leaders by giving generous donations.
Alaminos Philippines District President Porferio Balute Jr. said even children gave their school allowance."
I feel so humbled and grateful for membership in a church where there are such angels.
