bless my soul *[hands on]

lower 9th ward [nola]

today cbs - guidinglight shared footage of the

shows actors trip, to the gulf coast. 18 months

after katrina and those south, STILL looks like

the above image. common! we live in america

and this is all we've got?

november 2006, i traveled with a group from

st. bernards to st. gabriel of the archangel,

in new orleans. the devastation is wide, the

pain and suffering is deep.

as i watched the guiding light special, tears

ran down my face. i cry for the ones i had

to leave behind, still trying to gain control

of their lives, i cry for the new friends i met,

for the children who attended st. benedict

of the moor, on st. gabriels campus and i cry

because i yearn to go back.

if you are looking for something to do, something

that will forever change your life....please go

here. the hands on network is a great place to

start! they partnered with guiding light.
