POSITIVE PRESS

"Hurricane Rips South Florida..."

"...The disaster has had its positive moments. Local radio talk shows became information lifelines for people with no telephone or television. One caller offered a place to stay for people left homeless by the storm. Another offered to move debris with his miniature front loader.

"This subdivision of perrine, called Estancia, is more united than before.

"'I have a lot of neighbors I never talked to before,' says [Stephen] Wongkee, who is one of the few blacks in the largely Hispanic subdivision. 'But now we are speaking, sharing experiences, planning together.'"

Editors' comment: When people start working together with an unselfish care for each other, and even when they find themselves praying together in their local churches, constructive renewal begins to take place. In this week's Sentinel, the editorial "praying together" illustrates how people's selfless turning to God not only can lead to healing the wounds of those who are so in need, but can lead to longerterm caring for one another.
