The team at Interfaith Power & Light is praying for all those impacted by #Milton and #Helene,
“Our many varied faith traditions have taught us the power of prayer and the values of love and compassion. In the wake of Hurricanes Helene and Milton, the team at Interfaith Power & Light and our network of state affiliates offer our deepest prayers, from our multitude of spiritual backgrounds, for the individuals and families who have lost loved ones, their homes, and their livelihoods in these disasters. We pray for the communities continuing to be impacted by the lack of clean water or electricity, for the aid workers and emergency responders, and for the congregations in impacted areas continuing to provide strength and support for their communities in strained circumstances.
