Yes, after quite a few days with no rain, the rain has returned.<\/p>\n
We went back to Chalco today, this time to a new location, to serve breakfast.<\/b> Mostly we saw dry streets (all right, they were<\/i> dry until it started raining!), though there are still pools of water here and there (such as in lots and buildings).<\/p>\n
So the clean up is really getting rolling, which means mass chaos (as you’ll see). Most businesses in this area are still closed (well, the door may be open, but there’s nothing inside worth selling!), but people are shovelling things out of houses and out of sewers and so on.<\/p>\n
Though some help is coming now, it’s little and it’s late.<\/b> There were some recent protests by people from one community in Chalco a day or two ago. They had a "discussion" with police, as they asked why more help has not come.<\/p>\n
A few of you<\/i> have helped, and it’s appreciated. A couple people have mentioned that there’s been little (no?) coverage of this in Canada. Considering the thousands impacted, that’s pretty amazing. But we appreciate those of you who have been watching and listening here, and praying and giving.<\/p>\n
Here’s a brief video to give you an idea what the street looked like today. With the rain, it was pretty miserable, and let’s just say the air wasn’t pleasant (which is why you’ll see many wearing facial masks)…<\/p>\n
