Our lead Pastor's house is a foot deep in water, and many in our congregation are already deeply effected by this flooding, and the water is still rising. All prayers greatly appreciated.

PRAYING.
agreeing in prayer
I wonder if we can all do more than pray....what is the church address for your pastor please?
sorry guys, just now getting back online after the flood waters subsided in our area (though leaving absolute devastation in its path). Thank you all for praying for us. many in our church lost everything, homes, cars, possessions etc. Our church took nearly 3 ft of water, completely destroying everything. I had to evacuate my first floor apt and break a deadbolt off of a vacant 3rd floor apt for refuge in order to salvage some things of value but all furniture is destroyed. We were trapped in our complex for 2 days. A local family who was in a dry area took my family of four into their mother-in-law suite. Many in our congregation had water up to their roofs. There are significant challenges ahead for my city. And the flood is still moving to other areas in adjacent cities. So please continue to keep Louisana in your thoughts and prayers.
That is just terrible, James. Thank you for letting us know you are OK. We will pray for you and your family and so many others and the difficult days ahead.
Yes. You are in our prayers!

James...are you all above ground worshiping again? I pray so.
Yes we are still living with another family in a spare room above their garage :-) Our church still had 2 services last week where over 1000 gathered and I think these (although devastating) times may be the greatest times for us so far. There is so much generosity, brotherly love and true fellowship that I'm honestly thankful that our Sovereign Lord has allowed our church to go through this. Thank you all for your thoughts and prayers.
[Y] Glad to hear it! Still praying.
