Missionaries in DANGER from Taal Volcano | AWR360°
Below is a short video report on the situation facing our Center for Digital Evangelism in the Philippines. It is located just 20 miles from the Taal volcano that erupted earlier this week. You have probably seen the devastation in the news reports as the eruptions continue, but thankfully, the air quality has improved in the area where the center is located, and our young people are being allowed to return to work.
