Devastation in El Salvador

Heavy rains. Massive flooding. Devastating landslides. The people of El Salvador are reeling from the destructive weather that hit them this week. Rev. Duke Fries, associate pastor at Christ Lutheran Church (LWR's next door neighbor here in Baltimore) was there with a group from his congregation when the storms hit, and he will be sharing his first-hand experience with us in a guest post very soon.

In the meantime, please take a look at this CNN slide show of photos submitted by one of the members of his group. These images clearly illustrate the devastation and the long road ahead for recovery.

LWR is responding with desperately needed food, water and hygeine supplies. You can help. Thank you for your prayers and support for the people of El Salvador.
