The media will not tell you how wonderfully the church has responded to those wounded by Katrina.  However, you should read the article on the bottom of this page, written by a retired minister who has seen first hand who is responding to the victims of Katrina. 

Serving God and others,

Rev. J. Kevin Putty

WHAT I HAVE SEEN SINCE KATRINA:

The poor and the wealthy hurt by the storm.  Black, white, Hispanic, oriental and Indian all hurt by the storm. 

Christian people giving, giving, giving. Churches going all out to minister in Jesus' name. Neighbors going door to door helping one 

another. Thugs and hoodlums going door to door looking for someone vulnerable. Ice and water being fought over as police tried to keep 

the peace. People coming up from New Orleans taking over empty houses because shelters are full.  Out of town volunteers coming with food and staying for now a week and still serving it.  The Churches all over this part of the country doing what Christians do

in a crisis.  Fema doing a wonderful job in getting help to us; the Red Cross doing a great job in the shelters. The Salvation Army doing a great job in the community. Four Hundred crewmen from everywhere bring back the power to our homes, churches, and businesses.  Lines at service stations a block to a mile long.  National Guardsman patrolling the streets of Mccomb along with Kentucky policemen protecting us from the hoodlums and thugs of McComb, Pike County, and New Orleans (the most dangerous city in the world before Katrina). Drug dealers working outside shelters.  Doctors, nurses, and other hospital personnel working tirelessly, even sleeping at the hospital to do the job God called them to do.

WHAT I HAVE NOT SEEN:

The ACLU setting up a feeding line.

People for the American Way helping in the shelters.

The NAACP doing any work whatsover.

The American Atheist organization serving meals in the shelters. 

Jesse Jackson directing traffic at the gas stations.

I could go on, but you get my message. It's the Christian people with love and compassion who do the work. The gripers in Congress should come on down and get in line to pass the water and the ice. Are you listening Hillary, Chuck, Teddy and all the sorry loafers we call Senators and Congressmen? They don't have a clue as to what this life is all about here on the Gulf Coast.

Boy I feel better now.   David A. Millican
