Yesterday I shared the support of a pastor near New Orleans who I have been emailing. He sent his prayers and encouragement to our church saying:
Friends,
Five years ago, Hurricane Katrina struck our area destroying homes, schools, jobs and dreams. We know the difficulty of these early days following a natural disaster. I encourage you to do two things. Cling to your faith in Christ. The road ahead is long. His strength will carry you in surprising and amazing ways. Watch and wait for the presence of Christ to show up in unexpectedly amazing ways even in the midst of the pain.
Then, be the Body of Christ. You need each other and your city needs you to be no more and no less than the Body in these days. These are the moments for which God drew us together.
I am praying for your leader, your church, and your city.
Blessings my friends.

In such a difficult time it is great to have so much support from others. Whether it be the ‘farmy army’, the student army those who are baking all around the country or the support and prayers of those thousands of miles away. It is great to have people’s support and care.
