Day of Prayer declared in Louisiana
Filed under: General, Hurricane Katrina — Karen B. @ 9:10 am

I found this article in this morning’s Google News search of the latest stories about Hurricane Katrina.

NEW ORLEANS, LA, United States (UPI) — Louisiana Gov. Kathleen Blanco declared Wednesday a day of prayer as uncounted bodies floated in and around hurricane-battered New Orleans.

Two days after Hurricane Katrina came ashore with winds of 140 mph, city and state officials were still unable to estimate how many died from the winds and flooding from heavy rain and two broken levees that swamped New Orleans.

In declaring Wednesday a day of prayer, Blanco suggested residents ask “that God give us all the physical and spiritual strength to work through this crisis and rebuild.”

Amen. Note in Bishop Jenkins’ update (see below) he mentions a specific prayer service to be held in Baton Rouge. Let’s stand with Louisiana in prayer today.

Another source of information on areas hit by Katrina

I found this discussion forum this morning on the WWL TV website. It has discussion forums for various Louisiana parishes AND Mississippi Counties (Hancock & Harrison).

So for those of you seeking news on loved ones who did not evacuate, or wanting updates on damage, you may find helpful information on these discussion threads. As you read these pleas for information about missing loved ones, or news of damage, please keep praying for all who have been affected.
