Mike Pence joins Samaritan’s Purse volunteers to aid tornado victims in Kentucky

Former Vice President Mike Pence and his wife, Karen, joined volunteers with the evangelical Christian aid organization Samaritan’s Purse to help cleanup efforts in Kentucky following a recent line of deadly tornadoes.

On Dec. 10, over 60 tornadoes struck in six states, destroying hundreds of homes and killing over 70 people in Kentucky alone.

On Saturday, the Pences volunteered in Mayfield, Kentucky, working alongside dozens of volunteers in the town that became a focal point for national media coverage after the collapse of the Mayfield Consumer Products candle factory trapped dozens and killed at least eight.

Also joining the volunteers for the cleanup on Saturday was Edward Graham, son of the Samaritan’s Purse’s President Franklin Graham and grandson of the late evangelist Billy Graham. .. (Excerpts from the Christian Post)
