Hurricane Katrina Relief

September 8, 2005

My work

We have watched the news cov­er­age of Hur­ri­cane Kat­rina with heavy hearts. As I have watched the news, I have been incred­i­bly hum­bled by the fact that we have been spared from as strong as storm as Katrina.

Cam­pus Cru­sade for Christ has been busy putting together relief efforts to com­fort those who have been dev­as­tated and dis­placed by this dis­as­ter. Begin­ning this week­end , the Cam­pus Min­istry is look­ing for vol­un­teers to par­tic­i­pate in relief efforts in loca­tions in Mis­sis­sippi and Louisiana. We are hop­ing to send 200 stu­dents in the next two week­ends to aid in relief efforts.

These vol­un­teers will be work­ing with local churches to clean food ware­houses, sort food and cloth­ing, clean debris from yards, chain saw fallen trees, dis­trib­ute Bibles, pro­vide baby-sitting for moth­ers and clear sev­eral feet of mud out of flooded homes. I have spent the last two days help­ing in this effort by cre­at­ing a spe­cial sec­tion on our Cam­pus Min­istry web­site.

Would you join us in pray­ing for these efforts?

  • Pray that God would raise up over 200 vol­un­teers over the next two week­ends to go to Mis­sis­sippi and Louisiana
  • Pray that God would dis­play His glory through the lives of stu­dents and staff as they serve in these areas over the next 2 months
  • Pray for our Kat­rina task force as they coor­di­nate these efforts and work with churches to set up more ser­vice projects over the next sev­eral months
