Reports are that thousands of people were killed and millions more dislocated when Cyclone Sidr devastated Bangladesh last week. And relief agencies fear that thousands remain unaccounted for….
Rather puts the horrors of Hurricane Katrina and the California fires in perspective doesn’t it…?
But since it’s not wise to question why, how or where Mother Nature directs her tsunami-like wrath, I shall suffice to extend my condolences to the victims.
Moreover, thank God for all of the relief agencies, especially the International Red Crescent, for providing such prompt and sustainable assistance to the survivors.
In renewing my deep condolences to the families and the entire nation, which is very dear to me, I appeal to international solidarity…I encourage all possible efforts to help these brothers who are suffering so much. [Pope Benedict XVI]
