Journey Church to Hold Prayer Vigil for Tornado Victims, Serving as 'Hub' for Local Relief Efforts

NORMAN, Okla., May 22, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- An Oklahoma congregation located just three miles from the suburbs devastated by Monday's tornadoes is holding a night of prayer and worship for victims and supporters this evening.

The event will take place at 7 p.m. at Journey Church, 3801 Journey Parkway in Norman, Okla. It will be a time "to come together as a community and encourage one another in faith that God can do anything," says senior pastor Clark Mitchell.

Journey has opened its doors to anyone needing shelter or meals. A mobile kitchen capable of serving 2,500 meals per day is scheduled to arrive at the church this afternoon.

"We're incredibly grateful to the hundreds of volunteers who have rallied to provide support and to care for people who've lost their homes in Monday's disaster," pastor Mitchell added.

Donations and volunteers are still needed. An updated list of immediate needs and volunteer opportunities is available at www.journeychurch.tv/relief.
