DISASTER

“Man’s extremity is God’s opportunity.”—John Flavel

Much of the ministry of World Missionary Evangelism began as the result of a spiritual or natural
disaster. Our founder, Dr. John E. Douglas, Sr. began the ministry of WME in India at a time of
spiritual crisis in his own life. Our Christian outreach into many countries arose in response to
desperate needs arising from bloody conflicts, hurricane victims, spiritual cries and movements
from foreign lands, the human toll from the HIV/Aids crisis, and other similar crises.

Disaster relief is a combined effort that demands presence and the ability to make an
immediate and effective response. When a natural disaster has raised a desperate need for
immediate help and support, WME has been able to use our presence, our people, our
relationships, our facilities and our resources to quickly intervene. This advantage helps us to
maximize the contributions of our donors and supporters to disaster relief. Examples of major
natural disasters where World Missionary Evangelism was able to meet sudden needs include:

When the massive earthquake and tsunami hit Japan in March 2011, WME was able to send
humanitarian aid to those in need via a team of Japanese pastors, believers and missionaries
on site in that country.

When tornadoes recently struck with such devastating force in Tuscaloosa, Alabama and
Joplin, Missouri, WME was able to partner with local churches and ministries to quickly send
food, clothing and daily essentials to our devastated neighbors within the U.S.

When bloody conflict erupted in Kenya after disputed elections in 2008, our mission was
located at the center of that storm in the slum at Kibera-Soweto. WME was able to transmit
funds and buy and distribute food to children starving under the siege.

When the Tsunami hit the coasts of India, WME was able to go quickly into Tamil Nadu and
Andrah Pradesh because we already had an extensive presence on the ground.

When coffee workers were displaced within Nicaragua, WME was able to move in tons of rice
from the farming industry on the Texas Gulf Coast by working in association with Mr. Robert
Coen and the Calhoun County Daybreak Rotary Club.

When the great earthquake occurred at Bhuj, India in 2001, WME was able to immediately
release funds and activate people on the ground in the affected area where we already had
a church, a children’s home and pastors. Because we already had a presence and an
immediate ability to transport supplies, WME was one of the first outside organizations into
the area.

and assist whenever the next disaster strikes.
