Assessing for Relief, Committed to Recovery... Asst. Pastor Masatoshi Ohkita of Midorino Chapel (Keisen Christ Church) says that churches are assessing the rapidly changing needs of the survivors of the earthquake and tsunami. Each time volunteers from his church come north, the needs are dramatically different. Local churches are in a position to understand what needs people have and are positioned to deliver the right kind of aid.
Furthermore, Japanese churches across the country are committed for the long haul. Long after the RELIEF agencies and other NGOs leave the area, the Japanese Church is committed to long-term RECOVERY. This long-term commitment to recovery is precisely why Asian Access is channeling a majority of its relief funds through its network of local churches.
