    It looks like it will be weeks before some of us will have power, water, sewerage and phone restored. Our view is we've done it once, we can do

    Glad you are ok and have a place to stay. Hope your house is ok. Keeping you in prayer.

    My heart just breaks, I know prayer is powerful,and I do pray daily, but somehow I feel guilty for not being there to help, I would if I could.
