The Camp Mystic flood disaster in Texas has captured a worldwide audience, with millions hoping and praying that many of the missing are found alive.
The nightmare has touched all parts of the nation, including Washington D.C. Newsmax reported that Rep. August Pfluger (R-TX) and his wife were finally able to reunite with their two young daughters who, by the grace of God, were able to be evacuated from the camp.
Chaotic, sudden flooding from the Guadalupe River in Texas resulted in the deaths of dozens of young campers while many more are still missing and actively being found.
Prayers and support have poured in since the news of the historic flooding hit the headlines. Camp Mystic is a popular all-girls camp that has taken the hardest hit from the flooding.
Rep. Pflueger made his followers aware of the situation with his daughters on his X account, saying that he and his wife, Camile, along with a third daughter, Vivian, were able to reconnect with the two girls who were at camp.
"Camille, Vivian and I are now reunited with Caroline and Juliana who were evacuated from Camp Mystic. The last day has brought unimaginable grief to many families and we mourn with them as well as holding out hope for survivors," the Texas lawmaker wrote.

He added, "We want to thank the first responders who have come from far and wide to save lives. The TX Division of Emergency Management has been incredible and the White House, DHS, FEMA, DPS and local officials have all been responsive and helpful."
"Please join us today as we pray for miracles."
Newsmax noted:
The floodwaters along the river reportedly rose 26 feet in less than an hour early Friday. State and federal officials have said that about 27 campers from the summer camp, which opened in the 1920s, remain missing.
Users across social media offered their prayers to the Texas Republican and his family.
"I’m so glad you have your daughters and I’m praying hard for all the missing children and adults. I know Texas raced to kerrville to help in some form or other! Most places for donations were too full to take anything else. People were walking the river together in a line," one X user wrote.
Another X user wrote, "So glad your girls are safe. My daughter went there a few years ago. Unthinkable."
Now, we must continue to pray for the many more who are still missing, and for the young souls lost to the natural disaster.
