Nov-13, 2013 evening:   The Upper Javier community in the Philippines, Dr. Angie Broncano and the Community Development Team at Harris Memorial College in Taytay, Rizal Province, PHI are  well.  I have been in sparse communication with Dr Angie since Nov-7.  Super Typhoon "Haiyan"  moved over the Philippines islands and left great devestation in/near Tacloban.          
UMCOR (United Methodist Committee on Relief) is sending disaster relief contributions to the Philippines immediately.  Following is the UMCOR site: http://www.umcor.org/ where you can make a contribution directly and all donations will go directly to the relief efforts in the Philippines.  It will be greatly appreciated by thousands.
