Rounds of heavy rainfall and severe winds hit central Indiana in mid-August, causing widespread flooding and catastrophic damage. The historic event killed seven people, destroyed hundreds of homes, and left thousands of residents without power.
The Billy Graham Rapid Response Team (BG-RRT) is deploying to Hamilton and Marion counties to offer emotional and spiritual care to those who are impacted by these storms.
“Many families across central Indiana have been overwhelmed by the devastation these floods have left behind,” said Josh Holland, vice president of BG-RRT. “As they begin the difficult process of cleaning up and recovering, our chaplains will be there to listen, pray, and remind them that God is near in the midst of hardship. We want them to know there is lasting hope and peace in Jesus Christ.”
Please pray that God will comfort the hurting as they deal with so much loss and grief. Ask the Lord to use our chaplains to encourage these communities and point them to the lasting hope found in Jesus Christ.
