REPOST FROM PINOY METODISTA: Update 5 - The two missing United Methodist pastors in Tacloban City, Leyte are reported to be okay and are now in Ormoc City. Rev. Iris Picardal and Ptr. Lito Luana are now safe but some of their family members remained missing. Affected residents of Tacloban City and nearby areas are moving out of the typhoon-affected areas into Manila and other key cities due to lack of food and water. Relief workers are having a difficult time distributing the goods because most of the roads are still scattered with debris. The government has hold-off the coming in of aide workers and Foreign Medical Teams (FMT) because of the scarce supply in the area. The government is asking the aide workers to be self-sufficient if they want to help in the affected areas. You can send your donations to UMCOR or Office of the Bishop - DEA bank account.
