This is terrifying! Prayers for Malaise and Jamaica [View all]

https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1PMDwQTZgb/

Jamaica will be unrecognizable later this week.
Extremely scary situation unfolding for the residents of Jamaica right now. Hurricane Melissa is undergoing super rapid intensification and is now a category four with 140 mph winds. We will likely be looking at a category five later today at this rate.
Catastrophic impacts are expected for the island nation and unfortunately many don't have the ability to evacuate. Prayers definitely needed now for our friends in Jamaica.
