Prayers for New Orleans and all those who will be affected

Shortly after Hurricane Katrina hit New Orleans, a group of church members and I drove down to Louisiana in hopes of being able to assist the people there in any way possible. With the "ok" of the school, and my family, I spent 10 days in New Orleans cleaning up debris and doing our best to stop at least some of the tears, even if for only a couple of minutes. I am a firm believer in the "if you can help, help" approach. This year, I won't be able to go down and help clean-up after Hurricane Gustav if New Orleans suffers the hit, but I will pray for them. I urge all of you to pray. There are still people living in small FEMA trailors that are in the path of this strong hurricane. Please keep all of them in your thoughts and prayers as they prepare for yet another hurricane.
