Gettin' the heck outa Dodge...

As of a few minutes ago, the decision has been made for the Week 2 team to leave Mandeville this morning, a day early. Though they are very safe for the forseeable future, there is new concern hurricane Rita will change direction to a more northerly course and their area is being evacuated. By leaving now, they have plenty of time to work their way out of the area and head for home.

Arrangements are being made for an overnight stop in Birmingham, Alabama, well out of the storm's path. Thanks to Homewood Church of Christ for hosting our team on short notice.

The team will also be pulling as much of our campers and gear from Tammany Oaks as possible and leaving it in Birmingham for the next team to collect to protect it from the storm.

Pray hard and pray often. Especially for the people at Tammany Oaks.
