Pray for the typhoon victims

From a missionary couple serving in the Philippines:

"The missionaries are all alive and accounted for. They are in the MTC
here in Manila and will be reassigned or sent home starting tomorrow.
They have all visited the MTC psychologist at least once. They had some
pretty terrible and traumatic experiences. Experiences that young people
should never go through They also learned that Heavenly Father is aware
of them and mindful of them. If you could see the devastation you would
know that if they did not have angelic protection they would not have
survived. All those who would have been released by Feb are going home
with an honorable release. The church is going to build a new mission
home and when order is restored the missionaries could go back. They
will still keep their Tacloban name tags. Those members who listened to
their leaders and went to the chapels lived. Those who didn't died."
