Title: Re: Back from Gulf Port M.S (Jolene) Post by jcmquix on Sep 9th, 2005, 3:54pm Hi All.. As you can all guess I am Haapy that Jolene is home... The gentleman Ben that returned with them, was trapped on the roof of his home for 2 days, waiting for the water to go down. (Jolene is very tired)....This poor man is 56yrs old, they are taking him around right now, checking in with the Red Cross and trying to start getting his life back togeather again... He lost everything.. (Batteries in camera were dead, I did not get any pic's of him yet )... but we told him he can stay in our Rental apartment as long as he needs to.. The Lady Jaima that came back with Jolene has Family id in LaBelle Fla, Jolene is taking her there now...its about 2 hours away... She was just amazed at the images she saw on the TV when they stopped here, they have not seen the other Damage other than where they were staying in Gulf Port.. She just started crying.. she was thankful just to be alive, She also lost everything, except for a few pictures.. I am going to Post a few pictures here, I will post the link to my website, so anyone that wants can see all the pictures.. Be Patient I'm still getting them, loaded up from the other puter, I will have them all posted by the AM... ok Lets get started... http://storage.msn.com/x1pxOYwqu4SjF5iohZHoAAhedPNC-fbvhopgMimcugLv05t_l4XoGfDRkI1nWlEJRPamlMTtQvkgMy_tcbKIx-UaTrLMZ85URieVfSsI78HXjsdU58PKt_bvd7ETW7fZN5G3BIplzksyDqnruXlmzPj7g This is the Van from "God's House", this is our Brother-in-Laws Church.. A Brake line broke just as they were leaving town, so they had to load everything on the Bus... http://storage.msn.com/x1pxOYwqu4SjF5iohZHoAAhedPNC-fbvhopgMimcugLv05I7xtjzpkD7mO3kusYvg2KWdcVKJOYqvn3bpEvgL0pl2ZRbnyF8fmE2QfXPCoB4YYe6Y44TBUXnpyy-Gnpidl9iNci9JgDnER_CfQcrHkgFw This the Bus being loaded... http://storage.msn.com/x1pxOYwqu4SjF5iohZHoAAhedPNC-fbvhopgMimcugLv07AuInyCuJKaZePJ0KTPmYPsjoC2eqS5gEKOmhwe6arPPlavMDDvs9_NGJczrLOY_yZX25qm93J_QcNE6p8XLIgaIEXuPdsuQ40n0ro4ukXaQ This is about half full of supplies... http://storage.msn.com/x1pxOYwqu4SjF5iohZHoAAhedPNC-fbvhopgMimcugLv069ftBTccDMJhflMACvjmaAYCxqQ49uRs5ZnR4td107nEVG0au1kq6IMNYJlzmWzjBb0VoLsFwEJb_yamQcCeQ6TfA6IxRuJ7COY-YBLxFREQ This is the Relief Team... http://storage.msn.com/x1pxOYwqu4SjF5iohZHoAAhedPNC-fbvhopgMimcugLv07S-3VFXxO4HwWm-GN5A6lDFsiHC-9UKIt1d8Rjlhs_YGfpauDwgIYajWmYCSQdYLgrKwXVbKOIM2DJAAA1uaQ9Sbp31yWVJnMtIdKof3Nkkw Hitting the Road... http://storage.msn.com/x1pxOYwqu4SjF5iohZHoAAhedPNC-fbvhopgMimcugLv05Vkt1eC76rd6L3efXE4SfQHyzPNvt6yw4o_Nz-x43WhLlUpzm4XwdTzZLXcJ0kS5TcmLmkEyRmAzrLHC6WnOBfxcpTEizPM4pLiCWcDT_IaQ This was really a sign from God.. as soon as they got back and we were unloading the Bus.. we noticed a Cross in the North Sky....Right over the Same area they were... Gulf Port, Miss. I hope you all enjoy the pictures... There are more to come.. here is a link to the ones on my website.. : http://spaces.msn.com/members/zombielandmsn/ As Jolene said, they are going to plan another trip as soon as we get more supplies and rest... Alot of the people there are still in shock... they all just want to find their belongings.. and in some cases Children & Loved ones... I just ask that tonight sometime, just say a small Prayer for these people... Thanks for Your Support & Prayer's God Bless Everyone Charlie |
