Yes we can and we should! I will vow to join you in prayer for relief from drought in the Philippines. Thanks for bringing that to my attention." Where two or more are gathered in His name, there He will be also." I think that also applies to a gathering of like minds.

Of course we can! As a Catholic nation,we should pray to the Lord! Prayer is best....
The thought of having a drought here in the Philippines, is like a punishment from God because we are so lazy already. During Sundays we go somewhere else, instead of going to Mass. (I admit that I don't go to Mass, and I am sorry God. The last time I went to Mass was last Friday because there was a school Mass)
Do you remember the story in the Bible about the great flood, that it rained for 40 days and 40 nights? Well, God made a promise never to make a great flood as such as that one. So now God is making it into a drought as our punishment.
SO LET US KEEP PRAYING FOR FORGIVENESS!

I am not much of a Christian, but I will certainly hope for the best, and maybe ask my Christian friends to offer a prayer for this. The drought is affecting a lot of people, and we all know that at the current state of our country, we seriously do not need any more problems...

Why not? There's a prayer included in the traditional Latin mass for droughts. But remember, God helps those who help themselves. Try conserving water where you live, drilling for wells and even cloud-seeding. God blessed people with minds to create solutions to their problems, too.
