Today we helped unload a truck full of food sent by Operation Renewed Hope. Jeremy, Pastor, and Emmett helped the others put the hundreds of boxes into a storage unit that Pastor Price is renting. We will use this food to give to evacuees in need.
After that, Jeremy and I went to the Cajun Dome to get our passes. For a brief period of time, they had stopped issuing them so we weren’t sure if we were going to be able to get them. The Lord was gracious, however, and we were able to get them. We met some lots of evacuees. I got tears in my eyes as one couple told me that they had found an apartment – I was so excited for them! Most of the people we met were thankful to be safe with their families and thankful for the help they were getting. It made us thankful for what we have (even if it is all in storage ☺).
