New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary

Katrina News Update: 8/31/05

Dear Seminary Family,

The situation in New Orleans is still unfolding and as a result there is much we do not know. We do anticipate a major update of information on Friday, September 2. Southern Baptists who wish to contribute funds to the relief efforts for the Seminary and its families can send gifts to the NOBTS Hurricane Relief Fund at the

Southern Baptist Foundation
901 Commerce Street
Suite 600
Nashville, TN 37203
615.254.8823
Fax: 615.255.1832

We are in the process of setting temporary offices at our Atlanta extension center. The time has come for faculty to report in. If you are a member of the NOBTS faculty please e-mail Dr. Lemke at nobtsfamily@yahoo.com or call (800)514-1175 or (800) 662-8701 and give us the following information:

- Where are you and are you and your family safe?
- How can we reach you by telephone including a land line number?
- Do you have a non-nobts e-mail?

We also need to hear from three groups of NOBTS staff:

Business Office
Registrar's Office
Dean of Student's Office.

If you work one of these offices, please e-mail or call in your answers to the above questions. Send e-mails to nobtsfamily@yahoo.com and call (800) 514-1175 or (800) 662-8701.

Please help us by not using the e-mail addresses or telephone number above unless you are a faculty member or work in one these offices. We must finish setting up our temporary infrastructure in order to answer the questions of the whole Seminary family. Remember a major information update is coming on Friday.

In spite of our present circumstances we are still seeing the evidence of God's mercy. New Orleans did not get a direct hit from the storm. The levee did not break until the storm passed and rescuers could get out to help. Those evidences of mercy are but illustrations of the grace that will sustain us all the way through this challenge.

Please continue to pray for our city and campus.
