Here’s everything we know so far:
Catastrophic flash floods struck Central Texas on July 4, 2025, killing at least 13 people and leaving 23 girls missing from a Christian summer camp.
The flooding hit Camp Gracewood, located near Junction, Texas, along the Llano River in Kimble County.
The missing girls, ages 10 to 14, were attending a Bible retreat when sudden flash floods swept away their riverside cabins during the night.
The floods were triggered by a severe storm system that dumped over 10 inches of rain in a matter of hours, causing rivers and low-lying areas to rise rapidly and with little warning.
Emergency alerts were issued, but it remains unclear whether camp staff received them in time or had adequate procedures to evacuate.
Search and rescue operations are ongoing with helicopters, boats, and K9 teams scouring the area for survivors.
Families have gathered at a reunification center set up in Junction, anxiously awaiting news on their loved ones.
Texas Governor Greg Abbott has declared a state of emergency and is seeking federal disaster aid.
Local churches and volunteers are providing shelter, supplies, and prayer support to those affected.
Authorities are still working to identify the confirmed victims and determine how the tragedy unfolded so quickly.
KEEP THE PRAYERS GOING!
I do have some good news to share, it appears as though two of the girls have been rescued by Helicopter:

According to the camp’s website, children are eligible to attend Camp Mystic once they’ve completed the second grade.
