As if Hurricane Katrina were not enough, it looks like our beautiful Gulf Coast will take another terrible blow due to the BP oil spill.  Everywhere you go on the coast–from restaurants, businesses, beaches–people are talking about the possibility that our way of life, our livelihoods, our futures may be irreparably harmed by this ecological disaster.

On Sunday, June 6, 2010, there will be a 26 Mile Prayer Chain on the Mississippi Gulf Coast.  Hundreds are signing up to participate on facebook.  If you live nearby, consider joining this group from 4:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. at the following locations:

Gulfport, Mississippi:
Courthouse Pier
HWY 90 Marriot Courtyard under the oaks
Between Courthouse and Teagarden Rd across from White Cap

Long Beach:
Mason Ave
Jeff Davis

Ocean Springs:

Pascagoula:

Bay St Louis:

Biloxi:

Here is an opportunity to remember the eleven men who lost their lives and to pray for the success of efforts to stop the leak and clean our sea and shoreline.
