Five years after the devastating storm hit New Orleans, three community leaders talk about how Hurricane Katrina changed their ministries and their lives.
Most of you know my story by now. Four years ago, back when the banks were getting bailed out and the people were getting bailed on, I lost the first house I ever owned. After moving to South Louisiana and rebuilding our lives, my husband and I were able to move ourselves and our 6 children into a beautiful new home. Three days later the moratorium hit - and I say hit, because it was like a punch in the stomach to the people of our area.
What's going on with his famous phase "48 hrs and you'll get a check??" I did my claim, last Monday and it's still Under review!! I've been a shrimper, more than 20 years and I know people, that have only crabbed 2 years and they've already received their checks!!! What's the hold up??? They did their claims 3-4 days after I did?! I don't know what to think, anymore !!
