The North America Southwest Area Presidency issued the following message following the tragic flooding in Central Texas:
We mourn and pray for those who lost loved ones and friends in the wake of the devastating floods in Central Texas. At a time of such unimaginable loss, we believe the Lord is extending His hand to uplift and comfort those whose hearts need refuge at this time of great sorrow. It is in Him that we discover the strength to overcome, the courage to persevere, and the peace that surpasses all understanding. There is hope amid the darkness as those of all faiths prepare to rebuild communities and continually encircle those who grieve with arms of love.
