Australia Flooding

Hey Family!

Quick update that we are doing great and where we are living isn't expected to flood. 1000s of others are much less fortunate. For the past several months Queensland has been inundated with rain. After nearly 10 years of drought, the ground simply can't hold anymore water. We've been witnessing the affects of that over the last several days and will continue to do so over the days ahead.

In our area most of the rain has caused roads and agricultural land to flood, not so much the homes(although there are a few). As you can see from the attached video that isn't the case in many parts of the state.
Despite the sun being out today, tomorrow is expected to bring flood levels higher than the previous big flood of 1974. In Brisbane alone they are evacuating well over 10,000 homes despite little to no rain on some parts of the coast. The tides mixing in with the draining rain water is causing most of the problem along the coast. In-land it is simply the quantity of rain.

All of that to say Australians need new houses, cars, businesses, food, clean water, a massive clean up effort, and prayer. Most of us probably won't be providing houses and cars, but at the very least we can pray.
If you were planning a visit to the Sunny Coast, we are expected to maintain a steady drop of rain for the next 8-10 weeks so you may want to rethink your plans!

Love to you All!
