Stormy Weather

Church marquee reading "Historic Second Baptist Church" with a reader board displaying "Stormy Weather, Mark 4:35-4" and service times, set atop a brick wall under a cloudy sky.

Historic Second Baptist Church reader board sits as it did August 29, 2005

I would like to remember the 1,444 people that "officially" died as related to Hurricane Katrina, but that does not include people like my friend's father that died of a heart attach while packing up to evacuate (FEMA initially said he drowned) or my Friends Earnest and Mary Hansen that died after they evacuated. Also I would like to remember the 135 people still missing related to Hurricane Katrina (Stats from the Louisiana Department of Health & Hospitals website)
