The Asia-Pacific Region is asking for global prayer as this storm is currently forecast to make landfall in the Philippines in the early morning hours of Sunday, December 7th, with winds in excess of 155 mph. This is almost exactly 13 months to the day of last year’s devastating Super Typhoon Yolanda.

Please share this request for prayer throughout your churches and across your social media channels.

Updates will be made available on our Regional Website, via Facebook and Twitter, using the hashtag:  #NCMHagupit

  • Pray for the safety of those Pacific Islanders who are directly in the path of this Super Typhoon.
  • Pray for leaders as they make decisions and preparations for emergency response.

We believe in a God who answers prayer, and a Church that knows how to pray!   Thank you for Praying!
