To support the Philippine partner church in coping with the consequences of the devastating tropical storm Haiyan of November 8th 2013, members of the PROK were sent in the period from January 20th to February 22nd to give a hand to the United Church of Christ in the Philippines (UCCP). After a preparation committee gained a first overview of the situation, members of the General Assembly staff coordinated groups of Korean volunteers in five teams for 5 days each. The first group was composed of the leadership of the PROK, to show solidarity and also to bring goods of relief aid.
 
Prayer of the Vice Moderator during the Solidarity Service on January 21st 2014
 
God of Life, we thank you for your infinite grace that enabled us to come together in this place today, to gather in your presence as brothers and sisters in Jesus Christ, our Lord and Saviour. We thank you that you bless us with this strong overseas partnership, where we as brothers and sisters in Christ can stand together, pray together and share comfort and relief in times of agony and despair.
 
God of Solace, we entrust you with our grief for all those lives which were lost and the tremendous devastation due to the natural disaster of November 8, 2013. Let those of us who were not affected respond to our responsibility to stand with our brothers and sisters in times of pain and grief. Open our eyes, hearts and hands to do as much as we can to help to relieve the innocent victims of this disaster. Let us never forget that it is exclusively your mercy that grants us life, health and wealth; let us not hesitate to share what we humbly receive from you.
 
God of Justice, we ask you to remind us that natural disasters do not happen out of nowhere. We come before you to repent our affluent lifestyle that leads to deterioration and disorder of the precious life you created with greatest prudence. Please help us to overcome our greed for energy and convenience. Help us to realize that our lifestyle of consumption and over-consumption contributes to global climate alterations, and hence to natural disasters like typhoons, floods and droughts.
 
God of Hope, we believe in your wisdom and omnipotence. We appeal to you that you receive our sincere prayer and transform us into your humble disciples. Let us appreciate your clemency, realize our commitment and follow your way alone. In the name of Jesus we pray.
 
Amen.
