According to Reuters, winter storms in the United States “killed at least 43 people, flattened buildings and snarled transportation for millions during a busy travel time.”

Numerous people are homeless in Garland, Texas following a devastating tornado. The city website reports, “Approximately 600 structures have been damaged in the storm. They include single-family, multi-family and commercial property. Single family homes account for the largest percentage of damage.”

Tornadoes destroyed at least three churches: two in Red Oak, Texas and one in Birmingham, Alabama.

Texas Baptist Men have already set up disaster relief operations in Garland and Rowlett.
