Disaster Relief: South India

On October 28 and November 3, 2026, two separate cyclones touched down in Southern India. Multiple IPHC churches suffered significant damage, and the Maruteru mission station needs a new roof and several rooms remodeled after the storms.

While our ministers, missionaries, and local partners are safe, local authorities say at least 3 people lost their lives in the first tornado, and thousands of citizens were evacuated from their now severely damaged homes. We lift up all of the affected communities in prayer and believe the Lord will cover them in peace and continued protection as they begin the difficult road to recovery.

People to People is now raising funds to send to our brothers and sisters in South India to help with the burden of immediate expenses, so they can take the next steps toward safety, health, and renewal. We hope you'll prayerfully consider whether giving to this cause is the right choice for you.

By giving to our disaster relief fund. 100% of your donations will go to those in South India to help purchase food, water, clothing, medical supplies, and other supplies the community may need as they begin to rebuild.

Finally, we hope you'll join us in prayer.

• Pray that the Lord would give his perfect peace to those who have lost their family members, friends, and homes.

• Pray for our church members, pastors, and missionaries who are currently thinking and praying about the best ways to support their neighbors during this dark time.

• Pray for the restoration of the local communities—that rebuilding won’t be terribly long or strenuous.
