Impending Hurricane Gustav
Those of you who know me, know that I am from New Orleans and live in Covington, LA. Right now my whole family, with the exception of my brother, Mike Ginart, have all evacuated to different areas to escape the wrath of Gustav. My brother cannot leave due to his position on the parish council in St Bernard Parish. I am currently staying in Dallas until we can safely return home. I would really appreciate your prayers for my entire family to be safe and be able to return home to houses that are livable when we come back.
All of us are still remembering Katrina which was exactly 3 yrs ago this very weekend. In Katrina, we lost our Uncle Red, a Catholic Priest that would not leave his church and my brother and my 2 sisters ALL lost their homes. All of them have rebuilt and were trying to get some sort of normalcy back in their lives. My children, my mother and Bart and I live North of New Orleans and were spared any material losses, but watched the rest of our family lose everything they’d ever had. The fear of the same or worse happening again is not something we can even fathom!
I hope to be able to report all is well in just a few days! Right now we’re just preparing for the worse, and praying for the best! I’ll be in touch!
