Cyclone Phailin Reconstruction – Believers Eastern Church
Believers Church is rebuilding 300 homes for forgotten victims of Cyclone Phailin.
Lost in a Sea of Storms
When Cyclone Phailin ripped through Odisha and Andhra Pradesh in October 2013, entire coastal communities were wiped out. Hundreds of thousands of people lost their homes and means of livelihood. Unfortunately, because the cyclone was one in a series of severe storms that hit Asia last year, Cyclone Phailin victims were largely forgotten. But Believers Church continues to work among those who lost everything. Learn more about Believers Church’s initial relief efforts.
