On March 11, 2011, a massive earthquake (8.9 on the Richter Scale) occurred in the Pacific Ocean just off the northeastern coast of Japan. The earthquake was followed by a devastating tsunami causing destruction along the northeastern coastline.

Shortly after news of the disaster S.O.S. mobilized a relief team to help assess needs and co-ordinate an initial response. With the help of individual donors and ministry partners we have helped secure 4 containers of supplies (250,000 meals plus water and blankets) to be distributed by local churches/partners.

Will you help the church be part of the long-term relief effort in Japan? We are still accepting donations to help purchase/distribute food, water, fuel, clothing, blankets and other supplies.

S.O.S. has the opportunity to purchase a container of tools from China for $10,000 and ship it to Japan for an additional $2,500.  These tools will be used by local churches and believers in the next phase of recovery from the disaster:Cleanup. If you would like to participate in this opportunity, please click here.

Give to the relief effort

This relief effort is a partnership of S.O.S., LIFE Outreach International, Cross Timbers Community Church and other partners on the ground in Japan.

Please pray with us for the Japanese churches who are distributing these much needed supplies to people in the disaster area and for the people of Japan.

“Many feel India will need to reduce rampant malnutrition if it wants to have the workforce it will need to compete as a global superpower. WSJ’s Geeta Anand reports.

Calorie consumption by the bottom 50% of the population has been declining since 1987, according to the 2009-10 economic survey conducted by India’s Ministry of Finance, even as those at the top of society struggle with rising obesity. Mainly because of malnutrition, around 46% of children younger than 3 years old are too small for their age, according to UNICEF.”
