On Sunday this week, there was a huge landslide in the\u00a0upper regions of the river which stopped it up.<\/p>\n<p>During the landslide, five people were injured. One 8 month old boy died and the other four have serious injuries. One lady is crippled. There is no road into this area.

The four meter high water crashed into the village destroying 12 houses, the church, church living quarters and several storage building with supplies. PTL no one was hurt in this flash flood. The flood continued downriver causing much damage also in next\u00a0village. Several boat loads of officials and doctors have been sent to assist in the situation.<\/p>\n<p>Many of the people who were affected by this landslide and consequent flooding are believers. One young couple who is an\u00a0elder of the GFA church,\u00a0lost their storage shed of fuel and other items they sell. This is his livelihood as they don\u2019t receive a wage through the church.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/darcy-berglund\/files\/2016\/06\/flood2-169x300.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/darcy-berglund\/files\/2016\/06\/flood2-169x300.jpg\" alt=\"flood2\" width=\"169\" height=\"300\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Pray this situation will bring glory to the Lord.
