Katrina Nine Weeks Later: A Video Album

As Thanksgiving Day approaches, my prayers and memories are especially directed toward the people we met in Mississippi and Louisiana and the challenges they - and people like them - face in the aftermath of the hurricanes. The Church and the people of the Gulf Coast need our prayers and support now and for months and years to come.

You'll be reading more articles about our Catholic Media Tour of the Gulf Coast nine weeks after Hurricane Katrina hit. The important stories are about people, but the places where they lived, prayed and played have been transformed forever. To share a sense of the places we visited, I produced this short Video Album of images I shot between October 30 and November 4 - nine weeks after Katrina. I invite you to view Album. Make sure your speakers are turned on.
