After lunch, we drove down to the beach area once again. These pictures speak for themselves.
This evening the team from Washington state returned from a stint in New Orleans. Rick and Matt helped lead a time of worship. Manda and I talked with Syd and Angie who are living in a trailer behind the church. Their home in Pass Christian is better than many but still uninhabitable for a while. Pray that they get a fair settlement from State Farm (the company has not been the "good neighbor" of their advertisements). This trip, for me, has helped me connect real faces, people and stories to this mass catastrophe. I encourage everyone to pray for these remarkably resilient people as they piece back their lives.

Jeremy, It's Angie from Mississippi! Just found your site on the computer, it was bookmarked. Just wanted to thank you for your prayers and to tell you that things are working out (mostly) with State Farm, not without a fight! Please send love to Manda and the kids from Samantha, Michelle, Syd and me!
