I have just returned from working at a relief site here in East Texas. The Baptist camp Timberline received aroung 150 evacuees from the SuperDome yesterday. There are many large families as well as individuals with no idea about their loved ones.
What a touching account of your day. Every since the race issue has been brought up, I have felt that the survivors could go one of two ways. First way would be what Jesse and Al are trying to instigate; a race war, riots, division. The second way is a rebirth; a chance for people to see the good that is around them and an opportunity to start a "new" life. Praying for the latter, and people like you and your husband are the ones that are going to make that a reality. Thank you for all you are doing.

We keep talking with the evacuees about "being lifted out of the water". This imagery is very powerful to be reborn. The past is left behind in that cess poll abd the future is ahead.
