The Knights of the Orthdox Order of St. John Russian Grand Priory carries on a nearly 1000 year tradition of service to Humanity. Its traditions extend back to 1048 with the Knights Hospitaller of the Order of St. John of Jerusalem which started the first hospitals during the crusades to take care of the sick and injured regardless of race, creed or ability to pay.

Typhoon Tisoy Relief Response Part 2 and 3
We served the senior citizens in Taloto, Camalig Albay.
Until now they do not have electricity because of Typhoon Tisoy.
It was a blessing to be of service to them that day especially
trying to cheer them up this yuletide season.
Our friends below are those from the 4-6km zone of Mt.Mayon.
They were some of the families intensely harmed by the typhoon because of the
mountain runoff aside from the strongwind and rain.
Let us continue to pray for them in Jesus' name.

Typhoon Tisoy Relief Response
These are people from Albay who suffered from the super typhoon "Tisoy".
During the typhoon they evacuated to a safer place and when they came back,
their roofs were swept off. But you will see in the picture that
it is somehow wisely fixed, thanks to the husband of one of our church
members who is a skilled carpenter. Nonetheless, we will continue
to support the complete restoration of their destroyed houses.
We provided them rice and groceries during this visit.
More to go. The Lord is good always.
Here are some pictures of the typhoon's aftermath:

Revisiting Our Kids in Myanmar
We have revisited our friends in Myanmar especially the kids whom we serve before in Nankan (Sagaing State).
Some of those kids are now brought to Yangon so they can study. Their families cannot afford to send them to school so this center becomes their new home until they finish school.
We provided them with their needs for the next few months like rice, oil, rice cooker, noodles, and then books for their studies.

This time we visited a new orphanage, about 2 hours from Yangon central. The home is called Hosanna orphanage. We are amazed by how disciplined and well groomed the kids are. We tried to provide them basic needs too like rice, oil, flour, and noodles. Everyone was blessed!
