STEVE HORN: Death could not hold Him
Yesterday, my wife met me in my office, as is our normal Wednesday routine, to walk to our church Fellowship Hall for our regular mid-week meal, prayer, and Bible study.

This morning, we know that 13 people were killed. This is incomprehensibly awful in every way. Too many questions and not nearly enough answers! I wanted to pray for this pastor. I could not imagine myself in similar circumstances. On average, I preach about 30 funerals a year. He, very likely, is about to preach 13 funerals in a very abbreviated space of time, while at the same time preach to a whole congregation of grieving members.

David Cheatwood, a coordinator with Louisiana Baptist Disaster Relief, said a team of volunteers from Sabine and Natchitoches Baptist Associations helped local volunteers take away the pine tree from the homeowner’s living room, as well as assisting covering the damaged roof. Coldwater Baptist Church in Hagewood also had several large trees down but reported no damage to the building, Cheatwood said. Church members and the community came together to clear the property. More violent weather rolled through the state last evening, March 29, though no Disaster Relief teams were activated, according to Gibbie McMillan, Louisiana Baptists State Disaster Relief director.
