East Africa: How else you can help

http://www.sbs.com.au/news/article/1569337/East-Africa:-How-you-can-help

Emergency World appeal to help the more than 12 million people affected by severe drought in the Horn of Africa.

Extended drought is causing a severe food crisis in the Horn of Africa, which includes Kenya, Ethiopia, Djibouti and Somalia. Weather conditions over the Pacific means the rains have failed for two seasons and are unlikely to return until September.

The humanitarian challenge is made worse by ongoing conflicts with militant groups, which allowe aid organisations limited access to large parts of southern Somalia and eastern Ethiopia. This means many needing help cant get assistance.

At present more than 1,000 people arrive each day in Dadaab refugee camp in eastern Kenya and the border of Ethiopia... after walking hundreds of miles in baking heat.... limited water, no food... needing desperate help.

Special thanks to Youtube

The song I used here being "Ave Maria" was composed in about 1825 by Franz Schubert (1797-1828). {Find translations of the words] http://www.carols.org.uk/ave-maria.htm

I used this song because with so much dire need in the world, I dispair when those with the least suffer the very most. This video is a prayer as much as a way to make the plight of those walking hundreds of miles for help, visiable. Please Donate something to the people of East Africa and Somalia.

  • Unfortunately all of what is happening, including this must come to pass. It is all written in Gods word. Sadly, great catastrophic tribulations will soon strike our very nation. All that is happening now is the prelude of whats to come. We'll be watching ourselves on YouTube. He is coming. Grab on to His great love and mercy now. While it's still here.

  • Uthinasia at its best. Not in a good way.

  • If you waste a grain, remember there are thousands of hands waiting to grab it.
