河南新乡、郑州等地因暴雨导致洪灾，当地居民房屋被淹，很多人流离失所，亟需各类援助。中牟县隶属于郑州，7月24日起，中牟县基督教两会于十公里外设置服务点，将物资和水发放到有需要的人手中。

 除了发放牛奶、面包、方便面、饼干、水等物资外，教会弟兄姐妹们还为大家烧大锅菜、胡辣汤，蒸了热馒头，让大家吃上热饭热菜。

 当地一位牧师介绍，目前当地洪水已退，有部分社区正在往外抽水，群众已开始返家，清理消毒，准备入住。

Zhongmu County CC&TSPM in Zhengzhou, Henan, distributed food and water to flood-affected people.

As the record-breaking rainstorms heavily hit Henan cities, causing many people in Xinxiang and Zhengzhou to lose their homes, believers from Zhongmu County set up service points ten kilometers away to help persons in need starting from last Saturday.

In addition to fast food, such as milk, bread, instant noodles, biscuits, and mineral water, church members supplied hot meals, including hot steamed buns, big pot dishes, and spicy soup.

A local pastor said some people had returned home to clean and disinfect their houses, while some communities were pumping water out, as the flood had receded. Till 12 a.m. on Tuesday, the heaviest rainstorm in 1000 years had caused 71 deaths, affecting 13.3 million people and more than 1 million hectares of crops, according to China Daily.
