The Billy Graham Rapid Response Team (BG-RRT) is sending crisis-trained chaplains to Brooklyn, New York, after a three-story building collapsed Wednesday, killing six adults and two children. Emergency crews have been digging through rubble to find survivors, but their search has been hampered by recent rainstorms.
“The impact of this tragedy reaches far beyond the site of the collapse, touching countless families, neighbors, and first responders,” said Josh Holland, vice president of BG-RRT Global.
“As this community faces unimaginable grief and uncertainty, our chaplains will be there to listen, pray, and remind those who are hurting that they are not alone and that there is hope in Jesus Christ.”
Please pray for all those affected by this disaster—that the Lord will bring peace to their hearts and give them strength. Also pray for those involved in rescue efforts and for our chaplains as they comfort this grieving community.
