Please join us in praying for the people of the Philippines following the magnitude 7.8 earthquake that struck Mindanao and the tsunami warnings that followed.

Our partners are already assessing impacts, coordinating with affected communities, and preparing their humanitarian response. As churches and ecumenical partners, they are accompanying those who are grieving, displaced, and facing uncertainty in the aftermath of this disaster.

Later this week, Week of Compassion Executive Director Rev. Vy Nguyen will travel to the Philippines as part of the Global Theological Fellows immersion program— a collaboration between Higher Education Leadership Ministries, Global Ministries, and Week of Compassion.

While Manila and the areas of our visit remain safe, this unfolding crisis is a reminder of why these relationships matter. Through partnerships built over many decades, we are able to learn from, pray with, and accompany churches that faithfully serve their communities in times of both celebration and crisis.

We invite you to pray:
• For those who have lost loved ones, homes, and livelihoods.
• For communities affected by the earthquake and tsunami.
• For our partners, local churches, and first responders as they assess needs and coordinate relief efforts.
• For wisdom, strength, and hope in the days ahead.

Week of Compassion remains in close communication with our partners and stands ready to accompany their response as needs emerge.

Community members continue to reflect on the insights shared during Alexandra Hudson’s visit to Shelbyville this past January. Her message sparked thoughtful discussions about civic engagement, community relationships, and the importance of meaningful dialogue.

As those conversations continue, organizations and community groups interested in further exploring these topics are encouraged to reach out. Resources are available at First Christian Church to help connect interested parties with Alexandra Hudson for additional support, programming, and opportunities to continue the discussion.
