We have parishioners, but they are devastated. Out of 25,000 homes, maybe five did not get water in them. (Katrina) went through us first, and we toned it down before it hit New Orleans.

I don't too much like taking from the government, but I don't have too much choice in this situation.

Because of the need, and it's also paying a whole lot more, it's paying double what it pays here, just because of the hurricane.

The beautiful part of the story is the compassion and charity of the American people.
