Storm season

Please pray for the latest hurricane victims in Mexico and those in Florida who prepare for Hurricane Wilma, now a category 2 storm.

We have officially run out of letters of the alphabet, traditionally used for naming storms and for the first time are going to the Greek alphabet. Tropical storm Alpha formed Saturday in the Carribean, breaking the record for the most storms in a season.

Is it just me or are there more storms this year than last? I seem to be hearing it more over here in our news. I pray for all those in the area.

Apparently, there *are* more storms than ever before. For the first time ever, according to an article I read, we have used up the alphabet when naming storms and have to go to the Greek alphabet.

Wow, the Greek alphabet. This is certainly the most storms I ever remember from a season. And, I will keep all victims of natural disasters in my prayers too.

I hear that Wilma has been upgraded to a category 3.

Dymphna's favorite quotes


"Slavery ended in medieval Europe only because the church extended its sacraments to all slaves and then managed to impose a ban on the enslavement of Christians (and of Jews). Within the context of medieval Europe, that prohibition was effectively a rule of universal abolition. "— Rodney Stark
