Hurricane Dorian made multiple landfalls in the Bahamas on Sept. 1. Then the storm stalled over the islands for almost two days, pounding the hardest hit areas, in particular Grand Bahama and the Abaco Islands (i.e. Marsh Harbour). Thousands of houses were severely damaged or destroyed—70,000 people are reported homeless. At least 43 people were killed, likely many more. Hundreds are still missing. Dorian was one of the most severe Atlantic storms on record and perhaps the strongest hurricane to ever hit the Bahamas. Calvary Disaster Relief is currently deploying a Disaster Relief Team to the Bahamas for assessment and preparation for future teams. Please pray about donating to this relief effort.
Psa 46:1-3 God is our refuge and strength, A very present help in trouble. Therefore we will not fear, Even though the earth be removed, And though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea; Thoughits waters roar and be troubled, Though the mountains shake with its swelling. Selah |
