| Sandy : NJ.Not far from our town is an isolated trailer park with about 100 people that took in about three feet of water. Most of them lost everything and still have no power. A nearby town set up a an aide station in the high school gym. I spent the afternoon driving some people from the park to the station with our church van and back home with their supplies. I will go again tomorrow. Gas is very scarce . We have enough for the weekend. Hoping by Monday there will be more stations up and running. The lines are up to two hours long for gas. Keep us in your prayers. More updates to follow.

| re: Sandy : NJ.Spent today as yesterday bringing people back and forth to the aide station then to their damaged homes and listening to their stories of trees hitting their trailers, live wires coming down around them and other similar events. I saw the first FEMA workers today. Gas lines are still hrs long and using the odd and even days with rationing. Saw a young mother in shock today walking around in a daze. She came with us and started to talk after awhile. More updates to follow.
