Month of Mary, Our Lady of the Holy Rosary

Blessings beloved ones,

I have been so focused on escalating tensions in Israel and the Middle East, that I was unaware of the unfolding humanitarian catastrophe in Acapulco, Mexico. 5 days ago, Category 5 Hurricane Otis hit the over one million population of Acapulco. The most intense impact of the storm hit at 2:30am and the population had less than 12 hours advance notice, because it intensified from a tropical storm to a category 5 hurricane in less than 24 hours.

I have been told that the plight on the ground is very bleak and very dire. The official death toll stands at less than 50 people, however, the actual numbers may be in the hundreds or even thousands. Many people are injured and desperate for food and clean water, as it seems the government is very corrupt. It is being accused of hoarding essentials for themselves and stealing donations meant for survivors, including using violence to keep people under submission and to prevent them from fleeing the disaster zone.

Please pray for the people, both living and deceased, in Acapulco, Mexico. Please pray that the guardian angels of those affected will be able to help more fully in this unfolding crisis. As we head into November, any prayers and/or Holy Masses offered for the deceased would be especially appreciated. Thank you for your compassion.

God bless,
A Soul
