"It looks like it just happened." Yesterday morning, before worship at Firehouse, a couple of us from GRPC were speaking with a member of the church. That was her comment when we mentioned would would be going to see the Ninth Ward that afternoon. She was right. As we drove over the canal, I looked over the Ninth Ward and saw a barren wasteland, the place that time seemed to forget. The height of the weeds was the only indication of passion time.
It is into that barren wasteland, not only physically but spiritually also, that we go as we start to work today. Please pray for our team as we will be working in three areas today.
- One team will be painting the home of a woman still living in a FEMA trailer as she is, at long last, close to moving back into her house.
- One team will be passing out fliers and inviting people to Feed the Multitudes, an annual "feeding of the 5000" here in NOLA.
- One team will be drywalling a church that was destroyed by the storm.
