Supreme Master Ching Hai International Association relief newsupdate from Mexico. 

At the end of June, Hurricane Andres brought inundating rain and intense winds. At least five people succumbed to the downpours, and 200 residents of Guerrero state were evacuated. Concerned, Supreme Master Ching Hai donated US$5,000 on June 25 to assist those most in need, including orphaned children. This amount could purchase US$17,000 in materials if acquired in the United States, based on Mexico’s cost of living. Supreme Master Ching Hai frequently asks for updates on such disasters, and with her permission we share the following report.

Most Beloved Master,

RE: Heavy Rains in Mexico

Two relief teams were organized, one traveling to the south-central state of Guerrero and the other to the northern state of Chihuahua. There, they delivered 500 bags of food supplies to those who had lost their homes, and several bags of food along with monetary relief for those who lost loved ones. One was a boy in Chihuahua who had lost all his family. He was very touched by Master’s blessing and love. 

We also visited a widowed lady whose husband succumbed to large waves. She was so grateful and sent her best regards for Supreme Master Ching Hai’s loving concern for her and her children. We also gave them information about global warming with SOS flyers as well as Master’s speech from the March 2009 “SOS: Save the Planet” videoconference in Xalapa, Mexico.The relief recipients expressed their gratitude to Master for her loving help, and said that Master is the only one who remembers them in time of disasters.Thank you, Master, for your loving care and protection for all beings on this planet.Relief teams from Mexico
