Nearly 800 people sought shelter in Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints meetinghouses across the Philippines as monsoon rains caused widespread flooding, the Church's Philippines news site reports.

Local Church leaders opened multiple buildings to provide emergency shelter as the storm displaced families across affected regions. The Church coordinated with local authorities to provide food, water, and temporary accommodations.

The monsoon season has caused significant displacement across Southeast Asia this year. The Church has historically made its buildings available for disaster relief in the region.
