mydeepestthoughts:

Guys, could you please pray for Brazil right now? Specifically a city called Nova Friburgo, my Brazilian hometown.

Read this CNN article if you have no idea what I'm talking about, but basically an overnight flood has left the city in ruins. The building in this photograph is of my grandparent's apartment. No electricity. No clean water. No cell phones. The region is mostly mountainous, with many houses built on slopes, meaning most of the water flooding is pure mud.

Thankfully, all my family is safe, but there are near 400 pronounced dead already in the area, and the toll is only rising. Please pray for all of them.
