Hurricane Update

Update on Harold and Beth after Hurricane Ike:
I talked to mom and dad this morning around 8:30 am, and they were safe. They had no electricity, and the street in front of their house is flooded, but at that time, their home was not flooded, and they had no damage. As of now, they are not able to leave their home at all, so they will stay put.

Lorie and Glenn are also without power, but they, too, are safe. If the roads are safe and Lorie and Glenn (who are about an hour outside Houston) get power more quickly than my parents, it is possible that Harold and Beth will be able to go to Lorie's until conditions improve.

Nikki and her husband are in Huntsville, with the same conditions. All report downed trees, no power, and flooded streets, but all are safe. Praise God! Please continue to pray for their safety as they deal with the lack of electricity and flooded streets in the hot temperatures of Houston.

Love,
Julie
