Presbyterian voices in the storm

This post contains links to blogs written by Presbyterians affected by Hurricane Sandy and to materials provided by mid-councils and Presbyterian Disaster Assistance with information about responding to the storm.

Some disclaimers and parameters:

  • Experiences of the storm differ widely due to a number of factors. Writing styles differ. The reasons we blog differ. The list is eclectic.
  • People process experiences in different ways using an array of media. This list focuses on blogs since that is what I do.
  • Presbyterians are not the only ones blogging about the storm. This list focuses on Presbyterians because I am one.
  • The fact that I have time to blog reflects my social location as a person of privilege and my geographical location on the Upper West Side of Manhattan.

I do not know all the blogs that should be included. Suggest other blogs either in the comments section or via email. This post remains a work in progress.
