Emergency Relief for Flood Victims in Da Nang City
Since October 27th, The central region of Vietnam, where L.O.V.E is located, is struggling with severe storms, heavy floods, and deadly landslides. According to weather forecasts, these areas will continue to be hit by typhoon Kalmaegi, followed by heavy rains. The previous floodwaters have not yet receded, and another wave is coming — a situation locals call “floods upon floods.” Many communities, many villages, many families will have to endure the lack of food, clean water, and the cold now throughout the Christmas season. Their homes and belongings have been washed away, leaving behind only sorrow and loss. Right now, they are in desperate need of food, prayer, and encouragement.
The damage caused by floods in Central Vietnam continues to be monitored and updated. According to consolidated reports as of the morning of 4/11/2025, the latest damage figures are as follows:
Human Toll The total number of casualties includes 40 fatalities and 6 missing individuals, along with 76 people injured. The provinces suffering the most significant losses of life are Hue City (15 deaths), Da Nang City (14 deaths), Quang Tri (7 deaths), and Lam D**g (4 deaths). The floods have caused immense property damage, with 104 houses collapsed or swept away and 453 houses damaged. The situation remains severe as 79,854 houses are still submerged by water. 🏠
Because of this urgent situation, we had a trip to reach the most heavily flooded areas in Da Nang to provide food and relief. We will also have mission trips to give food baskets to people at affected areas, ethnic minority children, the elderly, the poor, and the disabled after the floods and throughout the Christmas season, depending on the needs of each location.
We earnestly call on you to extend your hands to help, to provide food baskets, and bring warmth to those in need this winter. We believe that the love of Jesus Christ will comfort their pain and fill their hearts with hope this Christmas.. “He who is kind to the poor lends to the Lord.” – Proverbs 19:17

• 200 food baskets ($20 each) for poor families in affected areas
