A community responder from (bad lose in) BG, L, spoke about his church’s work in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, which displaced (100,000) hundreds of thousands residents in New Orleans and Gulf Coast in 2005.

       TR, a building contractor and ordained minister, is on the staff of a church called the chapel, on the campus of L State University. His church and others sprang into action to help victims of the hurricane by cooking food, collecting supplies, finding shelter and helping the injured (to) get medical treatment. The churches had no plan in place beforehand, but five days after the disaster got together to coordinate their efforts.

       “We had one church that was really equipped because of their day care and their school to (a) handle moms who were pregnant and who had small children. So from that (ap)point on, everybody who (shoulder) showed up (with) that was pregnant with a small (toddles) child went to (with) that particular church as the shelter and we (said) sent resources (the day) that they would require to that church. So they were the (destroyed) storehouse for (die person) diapers and formula.”
