A powerful storm spawning multiple strong tornadoes barreled through Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, early Sunday morning, damaging or destroying at least 300 homes. The twisters toppled powerlines and trees as it carved a destructive path through residential areas. Thousands of residents are still without power.

SERVIR COMO VOLUNTARIO EN OKLAHOMA

Samaritan’s Purse is deploying a Disaster Relief Unit—a tractor-trailer filled with relief supplies and equipment—to the Sooner State. Soon we will establish a base of operations at our host church, Wilmont Place Baptist Church at 6440 S. Santa Fe Ave. in Oklahoma City, and begin deploying volunteer teams as early as Wednesday, Nov. 6. Volunteers will help hurting homeowners in Jesus’ Name to clean up debris-filled properties, cut up fallen trees, and tarp damaged roofs.

Billy Graham Rapid Response Team chaplains will also be on the ground providing emotional support and spiritual care as they share the Gospel of Jesus Christ with homeowners and residents facing so much loss and uncertainty.

Please consider being the hands and feet of Jesus Christ to these hurting homeowners in Oklahoma.

Pray for the many families reeling in the wake of this disaster and for our volunteers and staff as they serve as the hands and feet of Jesus Christ.

On Going Work After Hurricanes Helene and Milton

Samaritan’s Purse continues a massive response to help in seven locations in Florida, Georgia, and North Carolina in the wake of hurricanes Helene and Milton. We have also coordinated hundreds of relief flights of food, water, winter clothing, generators, and many other supplies deep into the mountains of Western North Carolina and East Tennessee.

We continue to assist isolated communities in the region where thousands of people were cut-off by flooding and landslides. Samaritan’s Purse teams working in south-central Louisiana are concluding our response to Hurricane Francine, which rattled the region early September. We praise God that nearly 400 individuals have come to know Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior in the midst of crisis.
