Heading to SE Chicago/NW Indiana
Last updated: August 20, 2026
On August 11, a devastating derecho swept through the Chicago area and northwest Indiana, producing straight-line winds of more than 100 mph and spawning at least eight confirmed tornadoes. Countless families have been affected and are still working to recover from the storm.
Our Domestic Disaster Relief Team is deploying to the southeast suburbs of Chicago to serve those impacted. Please pray for the families, communities, and volunteers involved—and consider volunteering or donating today.
