Christmas Tragedy

My deepest condolences go out to the families and friends who have been affected by the recent earthquake that struck off the coast of Sumatra triggering tsunami waves that terrorises Sri Lanka, India, Maldives, Myanmar, Bangladesh, Indonesia, Thailand and Malaysia.

Some friends saw on yesterday's news that a 3yo boy, Tan Wei En, was rescued by a tour guide. His father is also safe. Wei En's mother, 42yo Ong Bee Ling, whom we affectionately call Ah-Leng, is still missing.

Her parents have just flown over to Thailand to wait for the latest news. Let's just pray that it's just due to the chaos that the family has just been temporarily separated. This family's my third aunt's (the one who went to Sweden recently) in-laws.

Please pray for the family. Thanks.
