Hey everybody, Greg Laurie here with Mark Erinus, Marcus, the Director of Outreach for Harvest,

and Mark, you just got back from the island of Maui. You were there hours ago, tell us

what it's like to be on the ground there, tell us what it looks like and what you're hearing

from people. Yeah, it was, it's a devastating sight. I mean, it looks like a war-torn community.

I mean, you've seen the videos and you've seen the camera footage of what it looks like. It is

just you cannot believe that this was a thriving community. I hear the number one tourist location

in the world is the island of Maui and to look at what it looks like now, it's absolutely devastating.

The fire was started with a huge winds and then what, the power lines sparked the fire. That's

probably the origin of it. That's what they're saying. Yeah, it looks like it started up on the hill

and you know, you know, 70, 80 mile an hour winds is what they're saying. Knocked down some type

of power line and then the fire was started, came right down the hill, started the houses and

jumped the main highway and within 24 hours, destroyed that whole community. So right now,

Samaritan's Purse has just landed a DC-8 in the airport there. They're unloading things to help.

I know that they have a semi on a barge coming over as well. There's other organizations like

Operation Blessing from CBN and many other Christian organizations will be there as well.

So Mark, I know people have asked me over and over what can I do? What's the best thing that we can do

for the island of Maui and more specifically for the people that have suffered this horrible tragedy?

They've got a year or so ahead of them before any type of normalcy is going to happen there.

So I'd say the number one thing that we can be doing as a community is praying for them.

These are people who lost not just their homes, not just their livelihood for a lot of them,

but also their community. I mean, their sense of community, but I will tell you,

it is amazing to see the love and the joy that a lot of them have and that how they've rallied around.
