Our Prayer [220 Km/h Dec 3,1951, Leyte]
In Response To: Prayer Request ! ()

I went through one with a 220 kilometers per hour way back in Dec 3, 1951, was barely 10 yrs old.

My parents evacuated us to the mountains for shelter - our house and bakery shops disappeared, everything else were flattened in the Main St. you can hear the waves splashes during heavy rain falls.

The Elementary School gone, nothing was standing - including coconut trees, acacia tree by the school gone - the local Catholic Church gone only the floor was left.

Just imagine there was a big foreign tanker ship in the poblacion, almost on the main street - see the map and other data on the attachment, Typhoon Amy is considered one of the strongest to hit Abuyog, Leyte, Philippines - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Typhoon_Amy_(1951).

Bodies of animals of all size and people - horrible sights.

You will be in my Rosary Prayers tonight - prayers for you, your family and neighbors tonight.
