Flooded House on Opon in Colombia
Jim Fitz's Christian Peacemaking Reports 

Jim at Flooded house
The Opon River rose and overflowed its banks, causing foot deep water to flow in and around many of the houses of the farm families which CPT accompanies. Here I am with one family by their kitchen.  The flooding will make the yucca crop, which is one of their staples, rot.  If flooding continues, the other crops will also be damaged. We are praying the waters will recede.
