Friends:
We have been receiving reports of the damage that has been caused by Hurricane Rita. We will try to continue to keep you updated as calls come in.
Friends, these people need our help. You can give through the South Texas District if you would like. Please make sure it is marked "Disaster Relief." If you have workers that can spend a day or two cutting trees out of the roads. Some of the people can't get in to see if there is any damage because of the trees. Many of these people don't have electricity and won't have any for awhile.
