This is a picture of Pearlington, Ms. hard hit by Hurricane Katrina. A group from Kansas came to Pearlington to help rebuild the town. Got that? This group lives near the tornado devastation in Greenburg, Kansas. They came to help us.
LS and Lovely Friends left yesterday afternoon driving to Greenburg, Kansas to build a house for a family left homeless by the tornado. The new house will be wind strong to 200 mile an hour wind, highly insulated to lower heating/cooling costs, quiet and termite-proof. The home is made of green materials. Lovely friends are donating the home.
I love this example of what goes around comes around. We are connected in mysterious ways to strangers who become friends. I see God working.
Love,
St. Casserole

This is making me cry, in a good way.
Precious! A couple years ago, when a neighborhood was devastated from a tornado, the first folks on the scene, beyond EMS, were "neighbors" from another area that had been torn apart the year before. As horrific as they are, catastrophies often bond people in unexpected friendships.
One of our elders just left for another 3 month stint w/PDA. He thinks he will be in Pearlington at least part of the time.
