Checking in from Hurricane Wilma

Thanks to everyone who prayed for all of us in South Florida this week. Hurricane Wilma was a doosy. We have not been devastated, but we are very beat up. Very few of the 6 million people here have electricity (as of last night, I am one of them, and as of an hour ago, I have internet access at home). Our church sustained a good deal of damage, but our sanctuary is usable for worship on Sunday, for which we are very grateful. Lots of tree damage to houses and cars, and lots of serious inconvenience as people go without power (and thus without refrigerators and thus without milk for babies, etc...). But good opportunities for showing the love of Christ. Thanks again for your prayers. I and my family are fine, although somewhat sobered by the experience
