A group of volunteers from Samaritan’s Purse is on the ground in Texas, helping residents clean up after devastating floods wrecked their homes. Along with practical aid like supplies and labor, they’re also offering spiritual support, sharing messages of faith in Jesus. It’s a mix of hands-on recovery work and emotional uplift for those who’ve lost so much.

Editor’s Note: When natural disasters strike, the immediate focus is often on physical needs—shelter, food, repairs. But this story highlights how some groups address the less visible toll, blending material aid with personal comfort. For communities reeling from loss, that combination can be a lifeline. It’s also a reminder of how faith-based organizations play a key role in crisis response, whether or not you share their beliefs.
