Samaritan’s Purse is sending relief in response to Cyclone Kenneth which struck northern Mozambique just six weeks after Cyclone Idai ravaged central areas of the African country.

Samaritan’s Purse DC-8 aircraft is scheduled to depart Thursday, May 2, for Mozambique with a load of shelter supplies for those devastated by Cyclone Kenneth. With an anticipated arrival in the coastal city of Nacala this weekend, thousands of tarps provided in Jesus’ Name will offer much needed relief.

OUR DC-8 AIRCRAFT WILL BRING RELIEF SUPPLIES TO STORM SURVIVORS.

More than 800 miles south of where Cyclone Kenneth hit, Samaritan’s Purse continues to serve victims of Cyclone Idai. This storm struck just six weeks earlier, leaving more than 500 dead and 500,000 displaced in central Mozambique.

In the areas surrounding the towns of Beira and Buzi, we have distributed more than 14,000 tarps and treated nearly 4,000 patients at our Emergency Field Hospital. In addition, we have handed out over 3,000 water filtration systems and rehabilitated hundreds of wells and other water supply points. We have also distributed more than 40 tons of food in three-day rations of rice, beans, and oil. Amid all of this, we have trained and distributed Bibles to more than 800 pastors who lacked them.

Please pray for the people of Mozambique as they seek to recover from two devastating cyclones in such a short period. Ask also for Samaritan’s Purse staff on site to minister the hope of the Gospel of Jesus Christ in their time of need.
