Mayor Campaigns for God After Miraculous Philippines Escape"Being more like Christ is living dangerously... We are told that there are disasters to come, there are challenges to come but for us to face it and God will be with us. Having a strong faith is the key, you cannot do it alone." -Alfred Romualdez (Tacloban, Philippines)—[CBN News] It was a year ago on November 8th that one of the strongest storms in history devastated parts of the Philippines. As the hardest-hit city Tacloban slowly recovers, its mayor is speaking out for the first time about how his faith in God helps with the challenges of rebuilding a destroyed city.
As super Typhoon Haiyan slammed into eastern Philippines, Tacloban Mayor Alfred Romualdez and a few staff members were stranded at a beach front location. "I will dwell in the shelter of the most High God, I will rest in the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the Lord, You are my refuge and my fortress," she said. The couple says it's a miracle they survived. "When you are faced with death as I was several times during that day you completely forget everything," the mayor told CBN News. "I never went back to my house to check on my belongings till after five days. What was important to me were the lives of people. I got my family and I was out there saving lives." Paying Forward With Hope
