SAY A PRAYER FOR THE WASHINGTON STATE VICTIMS


As Many as 108 People May be Missing in Washington State Mudslide
Authorities are searching for more bodies after a massive mudslide in a rural part of Washington state killed at least eight and possibly left more than 100 missing, while crews battle uneven ground and rising waters.A 1-square-mile mudslide struck Saturday morning in Snohomish County, critically injuring several people and destroying about 30 homes. Eight bodies have been pulled from the scene and authorities described the search for additional survivors to be "grim." John Pennington, emergency response managing director, said there are reports of up to 108 people missing in the mudslide but noted that number is unconfirmed.

Snohomish County Fire District 21 Chief Travis Hots said, "We didn’t see or hear any signs of life out there today," adding that they did not search the entire debris field, only drier areas safe to traverse. "It’s very disappointing to all emergency responders on scene.". (SOURCES: Fox News, Los Angeles Times)
As the Lord leads, please pray:
  • For rescue crews and other first responders as they work through unsafe conditions in search of the missing.
  • For families and friends as they await information regarding loved ones who may have been caught up in the mud slide.
