WATCH: Spontaneous Gospel Singing Fills Harvey Evacuation Shelter
Breitbart ^ | 8/30/17 | Lana Shadwick

Posted on 08/30/2017 11:12:06 AM PDT by Lera

Victims of Hurricane and Tropical Storm Harvey were captured on video breaking out into song at a shelter. The scene received almost 7.5 million views in the last 17 hours.

The singers are staying at the Lone Star Convention and Expo Center in Conroe, Texas, north of Houston.

ontgomery County and the surrounding areas were hit by flooding due to rainfall from Harvey and the overflowing of creeks and rivers.

According to Scott Engle of the Montgomery County Police Reporter, there have been 1,300 high water rescues and 1,100 county residents displaced in shelters. Three hundred roads are deemed impassable. His home was also flooded.

Tens of thousands were evacuated to shelters in the Houston area while more than 100,000 homes faced mandatory evacuation orders in surrounding counties. Late Tuesday night, Harris County opened NRG Stadium (home of the Houston Texans) as a shelter and Houston Mayor Sylvester Turner opened the Toyota Center (home of the Houston Rockets). The shelters were activated after the George R. Brown Convention Center filled to capacity.

In prison, Paul and Silas were praying and singing hymns to God and God delivered them out of their distresses (Acts 16:25-40) .

God bless these wonderful people.

Watch how the Democrats and the MSM will suddenly get all “Biblical”.

There’s a few liberals at Yahoo that like to quote the Bible or pretend to be all Biblical. Then you look at their past posts and how much they hate Christians and Christianity.

They use the Scripture as a weapon. Just like their father, that Old Serpent, called the Devil and Satan.

They dislike Christianity and all its followers, until they can use it politically.

"Jesus would have done this, not that." "Oh, that's not very Christian of you."

They're vile, disgusting people who, without double standards, wouldn't have any standards at all.

There was one in particular who was going all Jesus and Chapter and Verse - so I looked at his posts.

Very nasty anti-Christian on a LOT of posts.

I’ve seen another 1 or 2 that post a lot doing similar.

Yahoo is a liberal cesspool - I guess the only way off is to forward all the email (history) somewhere. I’d rather Yahoo not have a new email address. Those that run it are liberal scum.

This scene blesses me a lot. That big woman can really belt it out, and can bring out lyrics spontaneously, as (I would surmise) the Holy Spirit moves within her.

Good Gospel is just good but before anyone starts thinking anything else a lot of the people in that room voted for Barky. They aren’t necessarily bad people though I guess.

They are in need and they are seeking comfort. No better way to do it than what they are doing.
