Wilshire Baptist Church, is going to be taking donations and money to Baton Rouge on Monday. For more information click here. Or call/email Mark Wingfield, Associate Pastor Wilshire Baptist Church at 214.452.3128 or mwingfield@wilshirebc.org.
The evening Business Week picked up Brian’s Slidell Hurricane Damage Blog. CNN just covered the destruction and devastation in Slidell after reading about the town on Brian’s blog. Boing Boing mentioned the blog and Slidell. Instapundit.com mentioned the blog here. Finally, David Parmet is writing about Slidell via Brian in his blog. Update: over 29,000 unique visitors and too many blog mentions to list.

Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.

Hello, I have been searching as well for close friends and family. I am looking for Vincent Phillips in Slidell Tina and Richie Boni of Pearl River La. I live in Philly and of course can not contact them. I would be grateful if anyone has any news. I can’t believe how slow the government is in responding. Looks like all the help from the national guards is in Iraq.
