Christians in Spain Call for Prayer Following Flooding Disaster; Flooding Caused Deaths of at Least 205 People

Evangelical Christians in Valencia on the eastern coast of Spain have called for prayer support in the aftermath of last week's catastrophic flooding that caused the deaths of at least 205 people, the Worthy News website reports today (Nov. 6, 2024). 


The disaster began on the evening of October 29 when a meteorological phenomenon known as isolated Depression at High Altitudes triggered torrential rains in around the city. 


Reporting from Valencia, Joel Forster of the Protestante Digital media outlet said:"We've been hit by water like the sea.We have a huge flood. The ravine has overflowed, carrying away bridges, and has reached our neighborhood, which is far away."


Acording to the Christian Daily International (CDI), the catastrophe has seen Evangelical churches rush to assist victims and to help with organizing humanitarian aid, and collaborating in assistance networks. 


"Amid the adversity, Christian leaders have highlighted the importance of providing spiritual support to those affected. We must unite and pray for our community and our brothers in Christ," they emphasized, "calling on the entire Evangelical community to come together in prayer and support," CDI stated in its report.
