Love in Action

God’s Love Touches the Lives of the Cuban People By Costa Rica News Group (Originally in Spanish) On December 10, 2008, members of The Supreme Master Ching Hai International Association Relief Team from Costa Rica arrived in Cuba, bringing with them a contribution of US$10,000 from Master to help people whose lives were disrupted by Hurricane Paloma. They traveled for 10 hours to reach the affected region, where without the assistance of the local people from the church, it would have been impossible to reach the families in need. The team was especially grateful to a doctor who took every opportunity to help them. Her admiration and respect for Master was so wonderful that when she talked about Her while distributing supplies throughout the communities, Master’s love and blessing sincerely touched the Cuban people through her words. The relief team purchased food and essential supplies after assessing the needs of the people. These goods were then distributed to all the communities to help alleviate the challenging situation they were going through. Upon receiving the aid, the Cuban people were deeply touched. Some shed tears of gratitude and joy, as they couldn’t believe God had answered their prayers. Others sent their best wishes to Master. For many of them, it was the first time that they had encountered an international relief team. They said no one else in this world had sent their love and help to Cuba like Master did, even though it is difficult to gain entry to the country. The relief team members were glad to know that the families who received help from Master last time, after Tropical Storm Fay, have regained their faith in God and many are going to church again. Master now has a very special place in the hearts and lives of the Cuban people.
