A Letter from one of our East Coast Partners during Hurricane Irene – submitted on 2011/08/26 at 5:47 pm

I’m here in the East anticipatiing Irene. And it’s just as Pastor Jim and Lori have been warning about.

Merchandise flying off the shelves- no size D batteries in Home Depot since yeasterday. No more bottled water. Sold out of gererators, and what’s coming in may be double in price. Gas running out.

Story on news channel of potential food shortages of deliveries can’t be made. People discussing what they would do without water. I hear mention of tarps, battery operated radios, how to get power to their laptop….

I am just so grateful for the work you are so willing to do for all of us who are listening, and for the Lord, of course. I only wish you had the time to post on your blog EVERY day!

Even if Irene does not cause the damage projected, it is a good chance to see what still needs to be done before another one!

Praying for you, and with many thanks, Anne
