An inspirational book that will touch the hearts of all readers. This anthology of letters to Hurricanes Katrina and Rita survivors was inspired by Betty Jefferson, a lady who maintained her faith in the midst of tragedy. You cannot read 'After the Storm' and remain untouched. It is a care package from Americans to Americans...a symphony of praise for the strong spirit of every survivor who has suffered great loss, yet will not give up. It is both a rousing grassroots rendition of God Bless America, as well as a protest song straight out of the 1960’s. A sympathy card and a call to arms. A written bit of graphic history captured for posterity. Above all it is an epistle of love from the heart of God through the hearts of people. This anthology gives America a voice for the trauma we have all experienced...the survivors as well as those of us who pray with aching hearts and outstretched hands. Proceeds help fund a Scholarship for survivors.
