Sad to see....

Amen

Thinking of them all.

We are truly our brothers keepers. Please donate to the various tornado relief efforts, a far better use of donation money than others I have seen recently....
GOD Bless our neighbors who have lost so much.

And here is a link to a list of several places you can donate to...

Glenn Beck said on the radio program today that 100% of the donations on their site will get to the ground in Oklahoma where it is needed most. I am always cautious of who I donate to as many non-profits much of the donated funds get spent in the administration and such.

The red cross is another great place to donate to. A prayer for them can't hurt either. Bruce

Guys.
I spent several years in association with The Salvation Army in diaster and storm related evacuation, feeding etc. I have seen most all organizations at work in the field.

My vote is for:

http://mercuryone.fundly.com/2...dwest-tornado-relief

and

https://donate.salvationarmyus...mpaign=paid%2Bsearch

Keep them in your prayers.
Thanks.

I have worked in the military as a Disaster Preparedness Officer and in civilian life as a member of the Colorado Disaster Emergency Services Agency. I totally support the efforts that the Salvation Army have provided during disasters. The Red Cross, on the other hand, is not my first call agency...hmm. They had a chance with Elizabeth Dole as head and did well. After she left, we had a return to the old days of overpaid administrators. Overhead was the highest you've ever seen.

My prayers are to the families in Oklahoma and a donation will be sent.

Our prayers are to them.

What a disaster.

Looking at the photos and reports is heart breaking.

yes it was bad. i live on the north side of okc. it hit moore which is on the south side of the city. we had one tornado come within a few blocks sunday nite. not fun at all. take care .. lee b

Oklahoma storms again ... tragic. Prayers and support are still needed.

Ever wonder where the money goes?

Be careful where you send your money.

Make certain the charity honors your request for direct application to a specific disaster.

Cannot believe that it almost happened again yesterday. Prayers go out out all of those who were affected. If there's one group of people that can get through this though with their chin up, it would be the people of Oklahoma.

Almost??? Nine dead in OKC! They cancelled the horse-show (a multi-million $ event) at the colliseum due to structural damage.

Prayers sent from here. What a terrible thing to happen to those good folks, again!
