My 19 yr old son personally has friends in New Orleans. He has heard nothing from them since Sunday night. As well, he has a friend in college up North whose parents live in New Orleans and he has not heard from his parents since Katrina struck. The last he heard was they were unable to escape due to huge gridlock that occured when people realized Katrina had become the much feared cat five. Understandably, this young man is feeling somewhat desperate for news.
How many others are in this heart wrenching situation - worrying about their loved ones and unable to contact them? Our family has been praying for all of these poor people. For those trapped within the chaos and disaster along the coast. For those who escaped, but now have no home to return to. And finally for those who wait, with hearts in their throats, to learn what has happened to their family members and friends who were unable to evacuate.
May God Bless them, and may His saving grace pour down on them all!

We've been doing the same. I told my children that they have no idea
what their prayers can do if they are sincere and from their hearts..someone could be saved and someone could get help...we just don't know, so keep on, we must. I hope your son hears soon and that things are okay ....as possible. God bless.
