Hello Crystal City!
Today marks one month since flood waters came into our communities and caused chaos. Growing up having the Espantosa Slough in my back yard I knew what the occasional flood looked like, I even would get excited by it as many others did too. Every few years as waters would rise , sometimes going over the bridge, within a few days, the Slough was dry again ..never, and I mean never would I have thought it would reached and spread to the areas it did. Flabbergasted is pretty much the word that sums up how I felt during those 24 hours of the waters continuously rising. I will skip all the in-betweens and go straight to the afters. To see the entire community come together, to assist one another is also something I will never forget. From food, to shelter, to clothing and donations, everyone was willing to be part of the solutions. Not only are we blessed to have each other as neighbors, we had so many other communities care and come through.
As I sit here writing this, I can't help but think of all the individuals who helped in one way or another, I can list so many who so graciously gave, donated, assisted, volunteered, worked, helped, cleaned, did, do AND SOOOOO much more, but the list may be too long, and that itself speaks volumes.

We may be a SMALL COMMUNITY but we have BIG HEARTS.

May we always be as united as we were 1 month ago. 💞

Continued prayers to all affected.
