Several years of prayer and preparation led to more than 50 churches in Klamath County, Oregon coming together for Greater Klamath CityFest with Andrew Palau this past Memorial Day weekend.&nbsp; Working to serve the region and proclaim a powerful message of hope in Jesus, this historic effort brought together thousands of Christians from throughout Klamath County and led hundreds of individuals in personal commitments to Jesus Christ. The campaign – led by evangelist Andrew Palau and his wife, Wendy – featured gatherings throughout the region, including dinners, mini festivals to prisons, a youth outreach, and multiple school assemblies. All this led up to the free, one-day festival at Klamath County Fairgrounds on May 27 featuring award-winning artists Newsboys, Ryan Stevenson, and Marisol Park.&nbsp; In addition to the first-rate musical line-up from mainstage, the family-friendly festival included a massive children's area, complete with a gaming tent, petting zoo, carnival games, pony rides, and a mechanical bull. A program for kids in the afternoon (in partnership with Kids Blitz) and action sports demonstrations (featuring The Stunt Dudes) helped round out the day's activities. Andrew Palau highlighted the evening by sharing a clear Gospel message from the main stage and challenging those in the crowd to give their life to Jesus Christ. "Nothing brings me greater joy than partnering with other faithful believers to lift up the name of Jesus in a community," said Andrew Palau about the campaign. "We have seen such a tremendous response to this Gospel message across the globe. And it was no different here in Klamath Falls. From the prison outreaches to the evangelistic dinners, all the way to the festival itself, the number of people who heard the Good News message and responded was overwhelming. The promises of the world are so futile and fleeting. Yet the Good News – God’s gift of new life – is complete and life-changing. It does not disappoint. What an honor to share it with those in need." In total – including all events and gatherings – CityFest organizers estimate more than 13,300 people were reached in person through the campaign, representing an astonishing 20 percent of the population of the region. With Greater Klamath CityFest acting as a catalyst, local churches have also been serving the Greater Klamath region in a unified service effort. In an initiative that has come to be known as CityServe, the churches are focusing on several areas of need, including homelessness, youth and family, and cleanup and restoration. The city has seen an enormous impact through this campaign and will continue to see it grow in the days ahead. "The show of unity across 53 churches has been phenomenal," said Doug Kirby, Klamath CityFest Co-Chair. "It's caught the attention of the wider community who are recognizing the mighty force of a unified Church body. Revival has begun and has changed the trajectory of our Greater Klamath Region for all generations. CityFest is a once-in-a-lifetime experience – it's challenged each one of us to be more like Jesus Christ." While local leaders continue in this effort, the Palau Association will move on to support similar campaigns in cities across the globe. Upcoming festivals are in the works in Kenya, Egypt, Uruguay, the United Kingdom, and several cities throughout the United States.

Samaritan’s Purse will deploy its DC-8 aircraft to transport more than 40,000 pounds of relief supplies to Ukraine after a critical dam near the frontlines of the war collapsed. Tens of thousands of people have been affected and evacuations are ongoing. It has created a humanitarian crisis with severe flooding, shortages of drinking water, destroyed homes, and the threat of landmines washing into&nbsp;neighborhoods.Samaritan’s Purse responded immediately, mobilizing partners and local churches to serve people in desperate need on the same day as the dam’s collapse. Staff based in Ukraine are also working tirelessly to meet the desperate needs of families who are suffering. The international Christian relief organization is supporting local partners who are conducting water rescues for flood-stranded families while also distributing food, blankets, and other critically-needed relief items. The cargo plane will airlift additional resources such as blankets, hygiene kits, water filters, solar lights, and jerry cans. The DC-8 will land in Poland and then supplies will be trucked into Ukraine’s flood-affected Kherson&nbsp;region.“As the war in Ukraine continues to bring suffering, destruction and death, my heart breaks for the families who are caught in this crisis,” said Franklin Graham, president of Samaritan’s Purse. “And now thousands of families are dealing with the disaster of this severe flooding. We are sending these life-saving supplies in Jesus’ Name and want to remind the people of Ukraine that they have not been forgotten by God. Please pray for an end to this war and for our staff and partners who are working around the clock to minister to those affected by the recent floods.”Since the first day of the war, Samaritan’s Purse has been working to care for families impacted by violence, serving millions of people with critical aid. To date, the N.C.-based organization has distributed more than 173 million pounds of food, produced 15 million gallons of clean water, and treated more than 23,000&nbsp;patients.

BOGOTA, Colombia (AP) — Colombian authorities found four Indigenous children alive who survived a small plane crash 40 days ago and had been the subject of an intense search in the Amazon jungle that held Colombians on edge.The children were alone when searchers found them and are now receiving medical attention, President Gustavo Petro told reporters upon his return to Bogota from Cuba, where he signed a cease-fire agreement with representatives of the National Liberation Army rebel group.The president said the youngsters are an “example of survival” and predicted their saga “will remain in history.”The crash happened in the early hours of May 1, when the Cessna single-engine propeller plane with seven passengers and a pilot declared an emergency due to an engine failure.The small aircraft fell off radar a short time later and a frantic search for survivors began. The three adults were killed, and their bodies were found in the area.Two weeks after the crash, on May 16, a search team found the plane in a thick patch of the rainforest and recovered the bodies of the adults, but the small children were nowhere to be found.Sensing that they could be alive, Colombia's army stepped up the hunt for the children and flew 150 soldiers with dogs into the area to track the group of four siblings, ages 13, 9, 4 and 11 months. Dozens of volunteers from Indigenous tribes also helped search.<figure class="image"><img src="https://cdn.corpemf.com/news/58863.jpg" alt="Soldiers and Indigenous men tend to the4 children who were missing after a deadly plane crash"><figcaption>[Photo Credit: Colombia's Armed Force Press Office via AP] Soldiers and Indigenous men tend to the4 children who were missing after a deadly plane crash</figcaption></figure>On Friday, the military tweeted pictures showing a group of soldiers and volunteers posing with the children, who were wrapped in thermal blankets. One of the soldiers held a bottle to the smallest child's lips.“The union of our efforts made this possible” Colombia's military command wrote on its Twitter account.<figure class="image"><img src="https://cdn.corpemf.com/news/58862.jpg" alt="Soldier stands in front of the wreckage of a Cessna C206, May 18, 2023, that crashed in the jungle of Solano in the Caqueta state of Colombia"><figcaption>[Photo Credit: (Colombia's Armed Forces Press Office via AP)] Soldier stands in front of the wreckage of a Cessna C206, May 18, 2023, that crashed in the jungle of Solano in the Caqueta state of Colombia</figcaption></figure>
