How to Help Moore, OK Tornado Victims

Moore Oklahoma is a disaster area. As of this writing, there are 24 dead, having been downgraded from 51, and they are still looking amongst the debris hoping to find people alive. The police chief is saying that he believes 98% of all the dead have been accounted for, but we'll know better over time. One of the problems with getting the facts correct, is the problems with communication--cell phones are out because some of he towers are down, and accuracy is suffering.

Nature is not cruel; nature is indifferent. It doesn't care about your age, gender, religion or whether you're a Democrat or Republican; it will kill you if you're not prepared. Right now, there are two children in critical condition and are in the ICU. Both are doing relatively well, the physician in charge said. 

Sometimes being prepared doesn't even matter with tornadoes of this magnitude. There was some warning about the impending storm, and people got into shelters, but even so, some died because the shelters didn't provide adequate protection for the magnitude of the storm.

Right now there are many people who want to help the town of Moore. Officials want to make it clear that you should not physically go there to try and help out, but you can go to www.Safeandwell.org to make a donation or text "storm" to 80888 to make a $10 donation. You can also text the Red Cross at 90999 to make a donation.




Let's pray for Moore, Oklahoma and do what we can.
