Sundays' Prayers and Thoughts for the Southeast

Brothers/Sisters

in

The SouthEast States

WE

are thinking about you all

OUR

arms around you, joining with you

in the pain of losses unimagined

OUR

hearts are heavy

as we bear witness to that you are walking

through 

as we see the films roll

hear the tears and angst of the interviews

and

the photographs

and

the stories

of tragedy

and 

loss

May you find comfort in knowing

we are with you in spirit

holding your hearts close and tenderly

wrapping you in the warmth of our concern

and

The energies of 

the Universal Oneness

of the

God Within all of us

is standing strong

United

and

sending you 

LIGHT

LOVE

STRENGTH

HOPE

FAITH

as you awaken today

and

We pray for those who are lost

by this unbelievable tragedy of nature.

I have been told that little communities and towns are "flattened", "gone", in Alabama.

Much of

Tuscaloosa

All of 

Sipsey Alabama

Smithfield, Cordova, Hacklesburh, Hueytown

Alabama

This woman, was known by someone who has let me know of what is happening there,

and

she was all set to retire after a career of helping others in her community: 

Her Name 

Nancy Wilson, 34 years working in the profession of helping others; a party scheduled to honor her for her service. She was retiring so that she could be a full time caregiver of her Mom who has a terminal illness.

She died when a tree fell into her home from the brutal storms

the day before she was to be honored at the public library.

Dance in the galaxies

Ms. Wilson, your work here now is done...

Sheri Reese, a fan of Lily The Black Bear

is there, her daughter is there as well

both are devastated

but now in action.

They are now working hard to find and to provide necessary things in the community

and

are working with

some remarkable folks

and

asking that donations

or

things to help

be sent directly to:

THE BOY SCOUTS

AT THE 

1ST BAPTIST CHURCH OF DORA ALABAMA

ATTN: TORNADO RELIEF

1440 SHARON BLVD

DORA AL 35062

(205) 648-9006

 "We are taking our donations of diapers, food, water, feminine needs, pet foods etc. The boy scouts are running this for the church and are getting stuff where it is needed in some of the small towns which we fear will be overlooked by ARC and perhaps others" 

So then,

there ya go, from someone who is there

in the middle of the flattened and battered towns, communities, and heartaches, 

in the midst of the walking wounded

and those who are still in shock

numbed with their pain and disbelief

that so much could happen within minutes.

 

Sheri Reese also tells me this: 

Also, if you could remember the family of Maggie Enlow in Hacklesburg AL. She has lost several family members including her cousin who had a two week old baby. The town of Hacklesburg is almost flattened. Her family lost many of their homes. Amazingly, there are a couple of family members whose homes are standing and the family is gather there. We are trying to help them as soon as we can get in with supplies. We know a family whose home is destroyed. They are the Palladinos, Tommy and Tiffany and children. Just pray for us all here in the south. If we were not hit by the tornadoes we are hit in our hearts with the devastation and emotionally trying to find help and get things into people. The above church is small, not red tape, they will get things to some of the small towns around them. I'll volunteer to shop for them."

Yes

Sheri Reese, Wendy, The Family of Maggie Enlow, The Mother, family and friends of 

Nancy Wilson

and all those

who have died

lost loved ones in the SouthEast

and those

survivors

We are STANDING BY AND FOR YOU

TODAY

and in the days and months to come

with prayers, thoughts, 

with

HOPE through the heartaches

for healing

for re-building

of your communities

your homes

your

spirit

and

faith

and

in knowing

that those who lost their lives

in those moments of the storms

are with you now

present and beside you with each beat of your heart

giving you all that you will ever need

to do all that is needed

with the strength and wisdom

to know

that you will never be alone.

May you feel the Creators presence and may it calm you now after the storm

allow others to help, to minister to your shock, your pain and your great sadness. 
AND
I spoke with another young woman who told me that
a tornado came through her town
in Alabama
and the tornado came down in her hometown
but no one in her family was harmed
their home left intact
although 140 homes around them were destroyed.
She said that
The AMERICAN RED CROSS
were out in force
feeding more than 600 meals three times a day
in that community,
they were all out in force rendering aide
those disaster health volunteers.
This young woman said her parents
were making pallets on the floor to house
those who lost everything
and that
another woman and child
looked through ruins
and salvaged one of the child's sneakers
but
homes were opening their doors
to others in the communities
making pallets on their floors
and
feeding them
finding them clothing to wear
and providing them shelter
and
arms to wrap around them while holding their pain
as if it were their own.
THE AMERICAN RED CROSS
1-800-RED-CROSS
To donate
to Volunteer
To Donate
And from one
Disaster Mental Health Mananger
DSHR
I will tell you this:
Those who volunteer as
the ones who respond
who answer the call
and "go there, provide care, man the ervs,
and
provide care, water, supplies, helping hands"
THANK YOU ARC
and those volunteers
for your sacrifices
and the love you give so freely to so many!
I AM CONTINUALLY AMAZED AT THE RESILIENCY OF
THE HUMAN SPIRIT
GOD/CREATOR BLESS THE FOLKS
OF THE UNITED STATES

Let us celebrate those who have survived, give them the courage to move forward, to know that "things" are things... it is life that we celebrate.

Emotion is motion.

STOMP

We stand with you in spirit today across the globe

May you find comfort in knowing we are with you always:


AND for that I give thanks, and so it is!


FOR: 
OUR Ancestors; where would we be without them.
FOR: Our "Enso Bigninatti (Bighi) Now dancing with the angels and watching over us and the Disaster Teams of the American Red Cross. Bighi was the founding father of the Disaster Teams of the American Red Cross and a lovely man, a POW who escaped the POW Camps, who walked away during the death march... Who was a survivor, a man of great strength and  a war hero, a friend and mentor... We will miss him always and love him dearly...  "I get Misty" was one of his favorites and oh how he loved Sinatra... 
Today;;; we remember those who we have lost to all disasters and those we miss so:
