Our planned outreach to typhoon affected areas was delayed two days, due to yet another typhoon. “Quinta” hammered us on Christmas day. Although it was not as destructive and strong as “Bopha” that wreaked havoc in Mindanao, we in Siargao got hit harder. The eye was closer and north of us so the winds came straight at us and violently shook our windows and roof. Thankfully, the only damage we had was to trees and the thatch roofing on our small buildings.
