<div ><p>A Civil Air Patrol aircrew taking photos along the rain-swollen Colorado River near Wharton, Texas, in Hurricane Harvey&rsquo;s wake took quick action upon receiving a radio call for help and observing a group of people gathered at Holy Family Catholic Church.<br />
<br />
Some 300 residents sought shelter at the church from the floodwaters that had cut off access to the town of 8,800 about 60 miles southwest of Houston, and they were running low on food and water.</p>

<p>A second CAP plane was dispatched to obtain more detailed information about the location, including a phone number, to pass along to the Texas Emergency Operations Center. As a result, the American Red Cross team at the operations center was able to contact its volunteer at the church and arrange to provide needed support.</p>
