At least 51 people, including 15 children, have died as a result of devastating flash floods caused by a rampaging river in central Texas.
According to authorities, 27 girls who were at the summer program are still unaccounted for.
As rescuers navigate through downed automobiles, broken trees, and muck-filled debris, Governor Greg Abbott pledged that workers will work around the clock to rescue and recover casualties.
Beyond the youngsters from Camp Mystic, a Christian summer camp along the Guadalupe River in Kerr County where the majority of the deceased were found, authorities have yet to disclose the number of those still unaccounted for.
Additionally, Abbott signed a proclamation designating Sunday as a state-wide day of prayer.
For those affected by the tragedy, Pope Leo XIV offered extra prayers.
