Samaritan’s Purse Responds to Disasters in Minnesota and the Caribbean
In the face of unprecedented challenges, Samaritan’s Purse is once again stepping up to provide help. They are providing critical aid and support to communities in crisis particularly in America and the Carribbean.
The organization was founded in 1970 by Bob Pierce and currently led by Franklin Graham. They operate with the aim to help those affected by crises such as natural disasters, war, disease, and poverty.
Minnesota has been overwhelmed by severe flooding in the past week. This has caused a widespread destruction and leaving behind a trail of debris. In response, Samaritan’s Purse has mobilized its Disaster Response Unit to assist the hard-hit areas. Their focus is on Le Sueur County.

As these efforts unfold, Samaritan’s Purse is calling on the community to join in prayer for those affected by these disasters. Prayers are requested for the safety and effectiveness of the response teams, as well as for the healing and recovery of the impacted communities.
Through their unwavering commitment, Samaritan’s Purse continues to exemplify the power of faith in action, providing hope and assistance to those in dire need.
