Tsunami Relief
Dear ITAM Board of Directors Member and Friends,
The following was sent to me by Billy on December 30th. This is a plea for us to get involved in serious prayer and fund raising for the situation in and around Indonesia. As you know, Billy, Jesse Simonian, and Hebert Rincon are on the ground doing relief work as you read this.
Let’s get our churches, businesses, families, and whoever God puts on you mind involved in this effort.
The need is beyond our comprehension physically and even greater spiritually.
This is a great opportunity to be “light” where there is much darkness. Let’s shine as we have been given the title “light of the world”. Let’s work quickly and vigorously.
Thank you in advance and to God be the Glory!

The ITAM team is headed to Medan for the first steps of giving the 600 lbs of supplies and funds to partners. The team will assist in organizing relief agencies to coordinate together for most effective results. With the ITAM staff’s past efforts in Sudan we offer experience in situations like this. The team, while going and giving in the Island of Nias will be using many modes of transportation including air, ground, river and sea. We will be fasting while there, since their effort is only 19 days.
we will drink 1 pint of water per day and give their food and other water away. We will take multi-vitamins as we work day and night to help those in need.
ITAM is organizing a prayer vigil in the hardest hit areas to raise awareness of the hope and comfort found in a personal relationship with Christ. Pray for the ITAM team as we promote a personal relationship with Christ, the One who can offer true hope. Also pray that the demonstrations of love through the food, water, medication and support will communicate the love of Christ.
“I am personally asking for you to donate funds to ITAM as we reach out during this historic natural disaster. It is times like this that the family of God should truly sacrifice to make sure people receive help during their time of need. The world is responding, will Christians?”
