Hurricane Update
Posted by: David Bunch
Bro. Kenneth Haney has written an open letter to our fellowship. Also, there are instructions for contributing at the UPCI home page.
There is so much attention being placed on New Orleans, and rightfully so as the situation there is continuing to deteriorate. New Orleans was also a very important city in terms of economics and it is a major port. That being said, there is absolute devastation in Mississippi as well. All of these areas need our prayers and support.
In Baton Rouge, we are dealing with the new challenges of a city population that, according to some estimates, has doubled in a matter of just a few days because of all the people that have been displaced here. That means long lines, major traffic jams, and possible gas shortages. I'm not sure how bad the gas situation will be, but some seem to think that it could get serious.
I'm leaving work now to go fill up because the gas station next door just got re-supplied.
Please continue to pray for all of the Gulf Coast region.
