   It’s your story! It’s our story!

We have an amazing opportunity to share through a national television
broadcast the story of Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.)’s long term response to
hurricane Katrina and the thousands of volunteers who have walked alongside
the people of the Gulf Coast. *But we need your help*!

*Coming Home: Hurricane Katrina 5 Years Later* explores the relationships
between survivors and volunteers and stories of how they have touched each
other's lives. It is a documentary about what it means to survive a disaster
and face the long term recovery process. It’s a story about how the
Presbyterian Church and Presbyterian Disaster Assistance stayed with the
survivors long after the news teams left. It’s a story about how thousands
of ordinary Presbyterians made an extraordinary difference in providing hope
for the real people who lived through the hurricane and its destruction.

This is a wonderful opportunity to share the ministry and faithful
commitment to long-term recovery that Presbyterians have made!

*Coming Home: Hurricane Katrina 5 Years Later* was selected to be part of
the "Horizons of the Spirit" religion series, a cooperative effort of NBC-TV
