A Cross Was Discovered in the Rubble
The textbooks say that people in a crisis also suffer a crisis of faith. We saw nothing of the kind. Many of the men we saw, and there were lots of men involved; very tough men; were open to talking about God. They were not mad at God but at the people that did this.
But no one spoke of revenge. They spoke of the necessity of our nation taking the terrorists out.
We prayed, cried, laughed and fell apart physically and emotionally. It was a wonderful, horrible, agonizing experience.
The smell shall never go away.
