Bibles for Hurricane Victims

Michael Hyatt, who works for a religious publishing company is donating 100,000 Bibles to victims of hurrican Katrina. At his blog he says:

Why Bibles? This afternoon, an official in Baton Rouge said on Fox News, “We need water, food, ... and Bibles.” This is something I knew we could help with.

If you want to participate in this program, make your check payable to “Samaritan's Purse” and send it to Jim Thomason. He will batch the checks together every few days and send them to Samaritan’s Purse with a matching check from Thomas Nelson.

What better gift can we give these people than hope? Thanks to James Taranto of Opinion Journal for this.
