Prayers Please- Flooding

After having lots of snow on the ground and heavy rain for the past couple days our small little town is being flooded as I type this. I post these pictures with a heavy heart. The Greenbrier river has not crested as of yet and is not expected to crest for a few more hours - so water will continue to rise. These photos are taken from various friends that are on facebook and the ones of Huntersville area I took. The road that leads to Marlinton is closed due to high water.

Please keep these people in your prayers as there is going to be a lot of work to be done after the water goes down.
