After a devastating flood hit the Hill Country of Texas, Pope Leo XIV has offered his prayers for the victims, some of whom were children attending a Christian summer camp, and for their families.
At least 51 people are presumed dead after heavy rains caused flooding along the Guadalupe River in central Texas, including at least 15 children who were attending a Christian summer camp for girls.
“I would like to express sincere condolences to all the families who have lost loved ones, in particular their daughters, who were at the summer camp, in the disaster caused by flooding of the Guadalupe river in Texas in the United States,” Pope Leo said.
