It's not just the shelters-of-last-resort, it's those who chose, for whatever reason, to ride it out. It is my prayer as a Christian that they are spared. This is a very sad situation... so much more should have been done, but sadly, there appear to be few grownups in positions of responsibility there.

There seems to be a lack of accountability in the governor's office, and the NO mayor's office. Some tough love and strong parenting would have saved many lives... and we watch from a distance. So sad. Prayers for those who were let down.

Prayers for those who paid attention, with best intentions, who stayed to help others. We saw this well in advance. This is the sixth string here. The information was available.

It spooks me that the news commentators talk about 20 feet of water in the streets. Should this happen, it won't be a gentle raising of the water level. We've recently seen the effects of a tsunami wall of water rampaging.

Let's light a candle.

As another Christian, I join you in prayer.

Good idea glock I'm going to do that right now. There are still many stuck out on I-10 and other roads trying to get out.
