In Nepal, religious groups continued to pray for and deliver aid to the victims of the devastating earthquake there. Relief workers are facing various challenges, including a lack of clean water and the threat of spreading disease. Approximately 8,000 people have died, a number that is expected to rise. Many of Nepal’s ancient temples and World Heritage Sites were also damaged or destroyed.

Amid calls for contributions to help Nepal earthquake victims, humanitarian groups are urging donors not to ignore other ongoing crises, especially the millions of Syrian and Iraqi refugees who need assistance. Watch Mark Burnett on the Cradle of Christianity Fund.
