  • Worried for friends and their families in the Grenadine Islands: Carriacou Island, Petit Martinique, Union Island, Mayreau and Bequia could have all been hit very hard.
  • There are very heavy damages, so many homes and roofs are damaged on the island of Carrricou and Grenada. We are praying.

    And once again, I have to go to Twitter to actually see any footage.

    So this video went up, I'm assuming a few hours after going live. But Beryl had already made landfall by then. Wow, between mispronounciation of the island's name and the timing of the mention i think you need to do better BBC! 😒
  • His body also was like the beryl, and his face as the appearance of lightning, and his eyes as lamps of fire, and his arms and his feet like in colour to polished brass, and the voice of his words like the voice of a multitude. Daniel 10:6
  • Mother Nature is the great Equalizer. Praying for all of those impacted - even if it does nothing!
