Prayers for Springfield, Ohio

[mourningdove~]

As some of you may be aware, Springfield, Ohio has been in the news this week.

It appears there are ongoing issues there, involving the Springfield community and a large number of immigrants from Haiti (15K-20K) that have relocated into Springfield during the past 3 years.

The situation in Springfield appears to be 'heating up'. There were several bomb threats there, this morning:

Springfield City Hall, schools, county hit by bomb threat tied to Haitian issues

Several city, county and school buildings around Springfield were closed Thursday because of a bomb threat “to multiple facilities throughout Springfield,” according to a city statement released Thursday morning. Springfield City Hall was evacuated around 8:30 a.m.

Who is bombing who?

There's very little news reporting coming out on this, at least as of now.
So I don't know.

But tensions are presently high there in the city, between many of the established Springfield residents and the recent immigrants.

The population went from '58,000 to 78,000' ... within 3 years ... when the Haitian immigrants relocated there.
The city was not prepared for this kind of growth, and the ongoing challenges it would present for all.

What a kind-hearted man.
Was actually very comforting, to hear his take on things there.

Last nite, on the Jesse Watters Show, another kind-hearted Christian man from Springfield was interviewed. He, too, spoke with no animosity at all towards the Haitians. He explained that it's just that their city is not equipped ... was not prepared ... for such a large influx of immigrants. And many of the immigrants there need to learn how to live in America, and about our laws. But meanwhile, the city and its residents are struggling.

Very good video. Worth listening to. Thanks!
