for the week of 23 January:
All Things Work Together for Good
Part of the land allocated to The Salvation Army
In the wake of the South Asian tsunamis, The Salvation Army throughout the region is moving from immediate relief to long-term reconstruction and rehabilitation programmes. A major first step will be the building of 1,000 new houses on 344 acres of land allocated by the Sri Lankan Government. These will provide permanent homes for many of the 53,000 people in Galle, the hardest-hit area of the island, who lost everything in the disaster.

New PowerPoint Presentation
The Communications Section at IHQ has prepared a new PowerPoint presentation on the Army's post-tsunami work in India, Indonesia and Sri Lanka. It uses images supplied by Ruud Tinga, Robin Bryant, Captain Peter Hammond, Lieut-Colonel Dawn Sewell and Martin Herring. The presentation, which works best at 800 x 600 pixels, lasts just over five minutes. It has no accompanying music or audio track and the slides change automatically, so it may be useful as a visual aid during an offering, with suitable music, or as a point of focus during prayers. It may also be looped continuously. All the files needed to modify or add to the presentation are included in the compressed (zip) file if you have a current version of Microsoft PowerPoint. The presentation folder is large (over 26 MB) and may be downloaded here.
Extract the compressed file and copy all the documents contained in the folder to the root of a blank CD-ROM. If you wish to run the slide show from your hard disk, double click on the presentation file: Tsunami-2.ppt
To fund the purchase of the massive amount of supplies it will need to carry out its aid programme The Salvation Army has launched a special South Asia Disaster Fund. Donations can be made by credit card by clicking on the button shown here or sent to any Salvation Army headquarters worldwide (addresses at this website – see panel above right), quoting the South Asia Disaster Fund.
