Churches use anniversary to remember Katrina’s dead
Continued from page 4B
people to make some
progress,” the Rev Marshall
Ttuehill Jr., the Baptists’ pas
tor, said. “Progress makes
hope.”
A coat of primer on the
church, a revamped sign out
side and the tent - all recent
additions - are attracting
attention, he said. “We plan to
introduce oursdves back to
this community,” the preach
er, who sleeps in a FEMA
trailer behind the church,
said.
Two blocks away Mass was
under way at the Grace Epis
copal Church, which, took on 4
feet of water. It has been open
for months but the signs of
Katrina are everywhere: The
doors are warped, windows
are broken and construction
material sits in the hallways.
The shadow of Katrina
hung over the Mass on Sun
day, which was dedicated to
the people killed during Kat
rina- During the intercession,
the parishioners - some with
tears in their eyes — slowly
read the names of the dead
and lit candles representing
the souls of those who per
ished. Bells tolled overhead.
"Light emerges from dark
ness,” the Rev. Walter Baei*
said, "and darkness does not
overcome it.”

us into many of the problems
we now find ourselves in—
from 9/11 to the Israel-
Lebanon conflict to the ban on
stem cell research,” says
Dolan, Houghton Mifflin’s vice
president and editor in chief
Others, such as Jonathan
hfiUer, a Democrat and Ken
tucky’s state treasurer, see a
positive, unifying role for reli
gion. His “The Ccmpassionate
Community” advcx:ates a “val-
ues-based policy agenda,”
based in part on biblical writ
ings, and includes an after
word by former \Tce Presi
dent A1 Gore, a Democrat,
and a blurb fiom Republican
Christine Tbdd Whitman, the
former New Jersey governor
and head of the Environmen
tal Protection Agency
Danforth’s' book may
remind read«:s of Whitman’s
‘Tf s My Party Tbo,” published
in 2005 and a call for Repub
lican moderation. Danforth,
an Episcopal priest and for
mer Republican senator finm
Missouri, says he was
inspired to write ‘Taith and
Politics” by the dispute over
Tferri Schiavo, the irreversibly
brain-damaged Florida
woman who became a favorite
cause of the religious right,
and leading Repubhcans.
Schiavo died last year after
her feeding tube was removed
following a long court battle
between Schiavo’s husband
and parents-
“That was the 2-by-4 that
hit me over the head. I felt
that was totally inappropriate
and out of hand,” says Dan
forth, whose book is being
published by Viking with a
first printing of 100,000.

J.M. Little, Teacher
Yes, you will learn under Holy Spirit conviction (Jn. 16:7-11) that you put Christ
to death on the Cross. If you have never been taught that by the Spirit of God,
you are not saved! You church folks say you are saved, but you’ve never seen
that you put Christ to death. And if it ever pleases my Heavenly Father to show
you that you crucified Christ, there will go up from your heart a mourning that
you've never known before. Miss this great and bitter mourning, as laid out there
in Zech. 12:10, and you’ll bust hell wide open. You church members are so light
and frivolous. It is because there never has come a deep sense of your sins
against a Thrice Holy Majesty, and particularly the Lord Jesus Christ. I challenge
any man, anywhere in the world; 1 don’t care how many degrees you have before
or after your name, brother. I don’t care if you have preached in 200 countries
around the world. I don’t care if you have 100 diplomas and certificates behind
your name. If this deep mourning over sin has not taken place in your heart as
set forth by the old prophet, you ate not saved! I’ll stake the eternal destiny of my
soul on that statement. Our church members, beginning in the pulpit and
classrooms, have never seen that you are guilty of crucifying the Lord Jesus
Christ! And this is why Christ is not a living reality to your heart!
