Help is on the way for Arkansas residents affected by deadly tornadoes that tore through the state Friday.
"Luckily here in Texas we're bedded with so many people that want to help," said Rand Jenkins of the Texas Baptist Men.
On Saturday, the first team of volunteers from Texas Baptist Men started their trip from Dallas to Little Rock, where a deadly tornado left behind a path of devastation. "We want to meet needs as quickly as possible and help deliver help, hope, and healing in this situation," said John Hall."We got into town. That was Saturday. So we've been here for a couple of days," said Wendell Romans, the organization's state chainsaw coordinator.
"It is just pretty bad. There's a lot of trees on houses. Of course, a lot of trees on the ground. There's a lot of houses that are uninhabitable that are had to be torn down and may be rebuilt," said Romans.Once the assessment is complete, they'll get to work.
