Request from the State Program Director

Worthy Brothers,

The impact of the Coronavirus Pandemic is world wide. My wife was in the Philippines visiting her family when the pandemic started and is stuck there until the Government imposed Lock Down is over. The Lock Down in the Philippines is much more strict than what we have seen here in the United States. There are now checkpoints at each town and curfew hours in which you can be outside the house. Any one caught outside after curfew can be arrested and detained. The open markets and small grocery stores are only open limited hours and announced yesterday they may even be closed for a two week period. My wife and I are trying to organize a relief effort to help people in the community that cannot afford groceries before the two week lock down. If your council would like to donate towards this relief effort, please send your donation to me, so that I can send the funds to her to purchase and distribute the groceries. Any amount would help. Please see some of the pictures of the bagging and distribution of groceries from this past weekend.

If there are any questions about this relief effort, please contact me at dlmorri@gmail.com.

Vivat Jesus,
Duane Morris
Oregon State General Program Director
