Central Texas Flooding

Severe flooding struck central Texas beginning on July 4, as torrential rains from a stalled storm system caused rivers, especially the Guadalupe, to rise rapidly and overflow. Communities across the Hill Country have suffered devastating losses, with dozens of lives lost, many still missing, and widespread damage to homes and infrastructure. Rescue and recovery efforts are ongoing, and additional rainfall remains a concern.

Mennonite Disaster Service (MDS) is monitoring the situation closely, staying in touch with local authorities and partner organizations to assess needs and determine how we might assist in the days and weeks ahead. Our prayers are with all those affected by this tragedy.
