~Urgent Need in the Country of Turkey

URGENT NEED IN TURKEY

Recent earthquakes in Turkey have caused severe devastationMore than 2,260 buildings in Van and the vicinity were damaged or destroyed. There have been hundreds of confirmed deaths and thousands of injuries. Tens of thousands appear to be homeless as many families have had to evacuate their current homes to seek safety.  We are urging everyone who can, to donate to Compassion Services International’s General Fund so that  we can send financial support to Turkey. We have been notified by those on the ground of several families that have lost everythingThese families have had to relocate and are now in the process of rebuilding their lives by finding a permanent residence and new jobs. Together, we can help them in the interim by providing  funds for transportation and temporary housingThank you in advance for helping those in need and for helping to fulfill Matthew 25:40 and James 1:27. May God’s blessings be upon  you this Christmas season as you give.  You can donate now to our General Fund by visiting our  homepage, www.compassionservices.org. You can also mail your donation to our office: 3333-1 Rue Royale, St. Charles, MO 63301.
