Medical teams are now working out of Mianyang, a city of 5 million where more than 18,000 were reported missing, and in two outlying counties. Additional medical teams from a neighboring province and from Taiwan and Hong Kong are arriving and serving other areas. One of the teams from Hong Kong will be of experienced counselors to begin their important work in counseling and in training local people in post-trauma counseling.
While OMF is not a relief agency, we look to support disaster relief in practical ways primarily as a means toward advancing the gospel. We often partner with local believers and churches with whom we are already engaged. We are most effective with projects designed toward long-term development, and our goal and hope is to make permanent investments in lives and communities.
