TUESDAY UPDATE: We simply could not feed body and soul in Louisiana -- or anywhere else -- without your love and support. Click here to help us provide thousands more hot meals to Hurricane Francine victims TODAY.

This deployment has been intensely personal to me. After Hurricane Katrina struck my hometown of New Orleans in 2005, the vision for Mercy Chefs was born. It's so special to be back in the birthplace of Mercy Chefs, still helping people, almost 20 years later.

I am so blessed to see our efforts change lives by serving comforting meals made with love to Hurricane Francine victims. For those of you who have joined us on this journey of feeding body and soul in the wake of disaster, thank you for your faithful prayers and generous financial support.

For years, I've told you how something amazing happens over a shared meal. Life becomes "normal" again for a few, precious moments. Can I count on you to help us do that today by sponsoring 10, 20, 50 or even 100 meals? Any amount is a blessing. Please click here to make your best tax-deductible gift now.

P.S. Our team does more than feed the body. When you help Mercy Chef deploy in a disaster area, we also feed the soul. Our team carries much more than food, water and other provisions into disaster areas. We also bring the hope of Jesus Christ.
