I just got this note about KATRINA

Please contact your congregations and ask for volunteers who may be wiling to
go for a few days to the disaster area and volunteer. For those who cannot go
and offer personal aid, please also consider asking for financial contributions
to help the victims and help fund those who can go and transport goods or offer
service. If anyone wants to make financial contributions please encourage them
to make contributions to your churches and then in turn you can send the funds
on to Pinewood PCA but please include a note or clear identification that the
funds are to be used for "Disaster Relief". As you can imagine, one major
expense is going to be fuel cost to transport the goods needed by those in this
disaster. Pinewood already has a trailer loaded with goods that wil be taken
over as soon as the authorities will allow. --from the Disaster Relief committee of The North Florida Presbytery (of which Christ community is a mission)
more later...
