Hurricane Gustav


As a staff we are getting geared up for this weekend and beggining of next week as thousands of people will be evacuating new orleans and potential impact areas due to hurricane Gustav. Moments like these always present a great oppurtunity for us to step up and really be the Church!!! To find out ways to help in our efforts you can check out healingplacechurch.org.
or call the church (225-753-2273) if you or someone you know needs help.

HPC Gameplan: Donaldsonville Dream Center (West Campus) is working w/ The Department of Homeland Security and is set to be shelters. BRDC (Winbourne) is making preparations now to assist nursing home and elderly. Our Highland Campus will serve as a Rest Stop for those traveling on I-10 out of New Oreleans and it’s surrounding areas . Our St. Francisville Campus (West Feliciana Middle School) may be open as shelter if needed. Cooking for Christ Team (CFC) is prepared to cook. Both of HPC’s mobile medical units are poised and ready to roll into the community to offer aid. Evacuation contra-flow is scheduled for Sunday at 6am. Church services will continue to meet this weekend.
