It’s difficult to imagine the destruction caused by the Texas floods. At the girls’ summer camp, Camp Mystic, 27 children and counsellors are in mourning as the death toll rises to 81 across six counties. However, heroes have emerged from the tragedy. Emma Foltz, a counsellor at Camp Mystic, is currently receiving recognition for saving the lives of fourteen campers.

“Our hearts are broken alongside our families that are enduring this unimaginable tragedy. We are praying for them constantly,” the camp wrote in a statement on their website, adding that they are in contact with local authorities, continuing the search for “missing girls.”
