Victoria's bushfire emergency
You may or may not have heard it on the news, but a few days ago our country suffered it's worst natural disaster. I've seen stories on the news, tragedy, things that have left me in disbelief, and stories that have touched me.
750 homes have been destroyed
181 people have been confirmed dead with the toll expected to rise close to 300..
So far 50 million dollars has been donated to the bushfire appeal
The only thing that this could be described as is hell on earth, there was no warning for 100s of people as the fire took a deadly turn. I don't want to go into a lot of detail, or to describe some of the stories I've seen, just to remember, and support all the people affected by the fire. And also to pray that no one else is hurt. God bless you all.
