How Christian Volunteers Can Respond to Disasters: Lessons from ( Shinsai Borantia wa Nani ga Dekiruka?: 3.11Kiboh no Kizuna no Kiroku )
After the massive tsunami of 2011 hit the Pacific coast of Japan, the island faced its greatest crisis since the end of World War II. This is the story of how the tiny Christian minority in Japan mobilized thousands of volunteers and millions of dollars of relief to scores of devastated communities. Along the way there are lessons learned that Christians can use to respond to disasters throughout the world to bring help and hope to those who are hurting with the compassion of Jesus Christ. Topics include preparation for disasters, response in first 48 hours and through all stages, needs assessment, coordination, volunteers, survivor care, theological questions, first-hand testimonies, ongoing needs, those still in temporary housing. Jonathan E. Wilson is a missionary church planter in Tokyo, and is the founder of Christian Relief, Assistance, Support and Hope (CRASH) which served as a center for disaster relief during the 2011 Tsunami. He is also the founder of OperationSAFE a psycho-social trauma intervention for children after natural and man-made disasters. A5 size, 160 pp.
