The people of South Dakota affected by recent flooding as result of October snowstorm

Accroding to Indian Country Today Media Network, "Floods inundated Keystone and Rapid City, South Dakota, on Friday October 11 after an overnight storm brought 60-mph winds and several inches of rain. Flooding was also rampant in the Black Hills, in what the Rapid City Journal called the “'worst October snowstorm in the recorded history of the Black Hills.'"

Please keep the people of this region in South Dakota in your prayers. Look for ways to help through Lutheran Disaster Response either on the synod website or on the ELCA website at http://www.elca.org/Our-Faith-In-Action/Responding-to-the-World/Lutheran-Disaster-Response/Disaster-Responses/Ongoing-Responses/US-Flooding-2013.aspx
