Ambassadors of Jesus (update) - Commenter shared the following: I called Glenn Alexander who is one of our locals I interviewed in my story and have some news for you. He received a call from the orphanage (Ambassadors of Jesus) today and all of the children are well. He said the back wall of the orphanage was lost --it fell down. He spoke with Pastor Lucian's brother, Dominic, briefly but there was a problem with the call. Dominic, he said, will call him back this afternoon since it's easier for Dominic to call here then the other way around. Glenn said he will let me know if he hears news of Lucian.

Angel House (PAP) - Carpenter said a “good portion” of a house for handicapped boys and adults collapsed, as did the orphanage’s new surgery center. Fortunately, all of the boys were safe."
