Stefanski, )" To: Subject: CLIMB: Chaplain Field Report NYC 10/8/01 Date: Friday, November 02, 2001 12:28 PM As in the past, these may be forwarded as long as they are forwarded in their entirity. Barb K Cleveland kavouras@multiverse.com Field Report 10/8/01 Dear Friends, May the Prince of Peace, Jesus Christ our Lord, give you all comfort and consolation at this time; not only from the wars without, but for the wars within. As St. Paul writes in Romans 5:1 "Having been justified therefore by faith, we now have *peace* with God through our Lord Jesus Christ." With that all-important peace in place, the other troubles of our lives rapidly recede. This field report will cover two days, October 7th and 8th. On Sunday the 7th I drove from Cleveland, Ohio to NYC. The trip took 8 hours from door to door. It was during the drive (near Scranton PA) that I heard of the retaliatory strikes on the radio and my thoughts turned homeward - but my car somehow kept moving eastward. Beginning midnight Tuesday (10-9-01) I will be working the midnight to 8:00 a.m. shift at the land fill on Staten Island, ministering to the FBI agents and NYPD officers there, doing the evidence recovery. This is where all debris from the WTC is brought, raked and then sifted with ¼ inch sifters=
