"I am grateful for the generous giving. Let us to continue to pray for the people in Texas, Florida, Puerto Rico, for those who have been affected by damaging hurricanes and flooding, and for those responders who are coming to their aid," said Bishop Bruce R. Ough, resident bishop for the Dakotas-Minnesota Area.
