There has been so much written about Hurricane
Katrina that I hesitate to write more. But I have to say that Wednesday
evening after the storm, on a national newscast, I caught a glimpse of
our Louisiana Baptist disaster van serving food to displaced victims.
You’ll never know how proud that made me. On Friday night, I saw it in
another newsclip.
Our church is not a large church by any means of the
imagination. We will have 80 in attendance on a good Sunday. Some of
our people besides me saw some photos of our van working.
To make a long story short as an individual church
we are not able to do a lot. But besides feeding about 20 hungry
displaced people, we did, in two offerings the week after the storm,
receive $2087 for hurricane relief. We sent it to the ministry of the
Louisiana Baptist disaster van.
What a great work and witness.
