The 2014 December flood in Klantang was the worst in the last decade and it is considered
the worst in the history of the state.
The town of Kuala Kri was severely devastated.
The flood level rose to 7.03 metres which is far above the danger level of 5 metres.
All communications, transport and electricity was cut off and thousands of people were evacuated
to relief centres and to the homes of friends and families.
Houses, cars, properties, household items all over the town were destroyed.
People were without water, food, basic needs all over Klang Klang.
NGOs from all over Malaysia came to help the flood victims.
It was a demonstration of the Malaysian spirit.
New Life Global Outreach joined forces with the JB Pastors Fellowship Crisis Relief Team
to send 4 20-footer lorries with water, food, medicine and all kinds of personal hygiene
items and household things and clothings for the victims.
Once the roads were accessible on the 2nd of January we drove to Kuala Kri taking with
us a generator, water jet and a pump.
The members of Good News Church of Kuala Kri coordinated the logistics and planned for
the distribution and relief work to be done when the volunteers arrived.
Volunteers from JB Pastors Fellowship Crisis Relief and his team from Kuala Lumpur came
to help in the distribution, cleaning, painting and the rebuilding work.
So you know what, James just came up with an idea, we will go and pump water since we
have all this to the places where we want to watch, we want to start church first.
So we are going to ask him what about going to the outskirts because in the city a lot
of people will come here to help them to do that.
three days, two nights only.
So you're going back Wednesday?
Yes.
The outskirts mostly is Malin.
In the outside world, most of them are Chinese.
The pockets are in Malin.
The pockets are Chinese.
The pockets are in Malin.
Actually, what my wife and I have understood
is that they really bought a lot.
Anyway, we don't want to be against our fans.
Our fans are against us.
Our fans are against us.
Our fans are against us.
We also bought a pump.
Good News Church building was also submerged
infected in the flood.
Pastor John Ithikia and his leadership team here,
that they will work like one team.
They will unbind them in love.
And they will not just look upon their own church,
but through this flood, they will bring the love
and hope and faith to even beyond their church neighbourhood.
This is our prayer.
Bless them.
In Jesus' precious name, we pray.
Amen.
Amen.
Thank you Jesus.
I want to thank all those who are given kind and generous contributions.
I also want to thank Pastor Thomas Phan and his team of J.B.Pastors
as well as Chitravis Nguyen and Pastor Andrew Wong of his team
and their supporters who came.
Also, Good News Church members and New Life Global Outreach members
for the timely assistance in helping financially
and giving all the support to make sure that people will be helped
and relief will be sent.
