Other Shreeveport Happenings
Franklin Graham and Al Sharpton were evidently at the shelter on one of the same days as us. I was back in the computer room, so I didn't see either of them, but Nancy had the opportunity to witness Franklin Graham set up housing for a couple of evacuees with his father. It was suggested that Rev. Sharpton should have picked up a toilet bowl brush and helped out with the scrubbing, but no such luck.
I'm not sure my last entry was entirely cohesive, and I've had time to process everything a little more, so I have another concluding thought. It was really difficult for me not knowing what to expect at all before I went to the shelter. I knew that we were going to Shreveport to help evacuees, and that was it. So I just prayed that we would be able to meet whatever need there was, and God did just that. As Matt has mentioned, it was amazing to see God use every person in our group. God definitely put each of us where we needed to be to use our gifts.
