On Saturday morning, February 16, 2008, the latest Katrina Response Team from West Shore Evangelical Free Church will be on it’s way to New Orleans. We will be staying at Urban Impact Ministries, Castle Rock Church in the shadow of the Super Dome.
This is a small team, four people: Cherri Cribari, Rachel Stum, Don Sherman and Terry Fisher.
We’re excited: There’s the anticipation for the trip itself – the travel, meeting new people, new places…. but more than that, there’s the anticipation of what God with do with us, through us. So many people who have made this long drive come back talking about a “life changing” experience. Will it be the same for us? Who will we touch and who will touch us? What challenges will God bring and how will we respond?
Next week the story of “The February Katrina Response Team” will unfold. I hope you will share it with us. We plan to share some of our stories, some of our needs, our challenges in this blog. Stop back, read our story, pray for us and those we interact with along the way.
