Approximately 18 shipping containers have been filled. The Hudlins report that numbers of Assemblies of God churches and districts have organized full-scale collections of medicine, food, clothing, and other essential supplies. Several corporations have also responded. Chiquita Brands International has underwritten shipping costs of several containers.
Missionary personnel report that material donations have reached their capacity for delivery.
The most beneficial assistance right now is designated cash gifts. Monetary gifts have already allowed Assemblies of God missionaries on-site to buy and distribute thousands of pounds of food. The next stage of recovery will be reconstruction of Assemblies of God churches and schools. Over 75 percent of the Fellowship's churches have been reported as damaged or destroyed in Honduras alone. In the future, MAPS teams will be recruited to assist with this rebuilding.
