TYLERTOWN, Miss. (BP)--Rose limped along, drawing security from her cane. Suffering from serious arthritis along with a long list of other ailments -- and being recently widowed -- she might have reason to be disgruntled, especially amid the aftermath of one of the most vicious hurricanes ever to make landfall in America.
      Instead, she was excited.
      She was on a disaster relief feeding unit team from her Southern Baptist church in Michigan, preparing several thousand meals a day for a community left without power, without phones and without the means to care for itself.
