Indiana flooding

Please pray for my Indiana neighbors in the lower third of the state. They've been hit hard with rain and flooding in the past few days, and some have lost their homes. Residential areas aren't the only places being hit hard because of the rain - the flooding has affected the economy, too. If you look through the pictures on the Indianapolis Star website, you'll see Marines, Amish men, and Mennonites working together to save homes and property.

  1. PLus the prisoners from Wabash Correctional - quite an assortment.

    During WW II the prisoners in Alcatraz built some of teh rigginga nd nets used for teh D-Day landing, many of them working extra hours without pay. "We may be criminals," said one, "but we're also Americans."

  2. I didn't know that about prisoners during WWII. Thanks for sharing that info, Lemming.
