It was less than two weeks ago that I put up this post, listing charities who were helping those in need in Oklahoma.
Now they've been hit again, this time with 9 dead:
Five tornadoes — one a half-mile wide — struck the Oklahoma City area Friday evening, terrorizing communities already battered by deadly storms this spring.
The Oklahoma Office of the Chief Medical Examiner told NBC News seven adults and two children are confirmed dead, including a mother and her small child. At least five people killed were in vehicles and may have been trying to flee as dark clouds gathered and warning sirens wailed, authorities said.
Hospitals in Oklahoma City reported 104 injuries, including five critical patients.
Horrific stuff.
Once again I reach out to readers, as I'm sure many others are doing, asking that you consider helping out, not matter the amount.
Catholic Charities in Oklahoma is who I recommend but I'm sure there are other trustworthy organizations that can help if you look.
Please help if you can. Please pray.
Carry on.
