asking for prayer

[Chancie]

Hi, I'm sure many of you have seen the pictures of destruction
in Louisiana, and Mississippi from the hurricane, and how
serious it is.  Well it just so happens that 60% of my family
lives in south MS.  I grew up in Jackson county (It's located
directly on the coast, and is the county directly to the east
of Harrison County--where Biloxi and Gulfport are located)
I have not heard from anyone since the day before Katrina hit. 
My parents, my brother and my grandmother were suppose to 
have left and go a few miles further north to George county (directly
north of Jackson County) to a town called Lucedale, MS, I haven't 
been able to contact them, and I have been unable to gather any 
information from the News casts, since they are more focused 
on the larger cities effected.  I also have Aunts, Uncles and 
Cousins that live in this area, and I heard that at least one 
family refused to leave and they live in a mobile home that isn't 
equipped with Hurricane ties.  I would greatly appreciate any and 
all prayers that would ask not only for the safety of my family 
but for the safety of all of the people on the gulf coast effected 
by this hurricane.

Thanks,
Chancie
