Americans help those in need

To the editor:

I just came in from our Ladies' Prayer Group and turned the news on. When I heard the special news report telling how many helpers were going south to help our neighbors in Alabama and Mississippi, all I could say was, "Praise the Lord, this is America." Our people always come to the aid of those in need. Thank you, Lord, and thank you, Americans. God bless us all.
