Please pray for all in the path of Sandy

[Barbara Phillips]

Dear Friends,

Please pray for all of us in the path of Sandy.

Pray that this storm doesn't produce to much damage.

Please pray that all lives are protected in her path.

We live in the Mid Atlantic and are in the path.

We are probably not in the area of the land fall but are in the areas that will still get effects of this storm.

Schools have closed in our area. Also my husband & I both work for a major University and they have already announced they are closed tomorrow.

Pray for everyone's protection please.

You know they are really expecting something when your Utility Company and Cable Company call and leave you messages on a weekend.

Thanks in advance for your prayers

I've gotten a phone call from the electric company and an email from the phone company.

The rain has arrived here as of about an hour ago.

Schools are canceled for monday here in Keene, NH. We received a call also from our NH power company assuring us they are prepared.

Time to hunker down. Be safe. We do not any NazNetters severely affected. Praying that the Ryan Scotts in Delaware are ok.

For the Harrisburg area the worst is expected to come tonight especially around midnight. After that hopefully will not have lost power.

We'll be fine here. Not much in the way of rivers or creeks and we're well away from the Delaware River. Our former home in Pennsville, NJ and the rest of South Jersey will be in a lot of trouble. During Irene last year, the Delaware River came within inches of overtopping the bulkheads. There will be extensive flooding there.

Also, remember Mike Schutz. Their home and church property are probably not in danger, but they live in a hilly areas with lots of low-lying ground. They work with a lot of migrant workers and immigrants who live in extremely flood-prone areas. The local shelter for them is the High School directly across the street from Avon Grove Nazarene. I suspect Mike will be spending his time there the next few days.

We're expected to get about 10 inches of rain. Right now the ground is absorbing a lot of it right now, but unless the storm speeds up, we're going to get a ton of flooding.
