Delivering Gifts of Love to the Earthquake Affected
By Mexico News Group (Originally in Spanish) On March 21, 2012, an earthquake measuring 5.8 on the Richter scale struck the town of Ometepec in Guerrero State, Mexico, causing many buildings to collapse and necessitating thousands of people to be evacuated from homes, schools and workplaces. Supreme Master Ching Hai immediately sent funds to be used for the relief work in the area, and a team from the Mexico Center travelled for more than 10 hours to the affected town.
The team provided MXN$1,000 each to 60 families, thus helping them to cope with the situation and rebuild their homes. With the kind assistance of Ometepec Mayor The Honorable Efren Adame Montalvan and soldiers of the National Army, the team was able to deliver 1,412 food bags in vans to the most desperate families in a remote area. The people welcomed the relief team with big smiles, were surprised by the large size of the food bags, and were thankful to Master for Her gesture of love. With a great round of applause, the townspeople then bade farewell to the team with sincere love and gratitude.
