WLOX-TV - The News for South Mississippi: God's Katrina Kitchen Settling In At New Location

WLOX-TV - The News for South Mississippi: God's Katrina Kitchen Settling In At New Location: "The move from Pass Christian to Camp Avenue in Gulfport hasn't been easy for God's Katrina Kitchen volunteers.

'It's been a very lengthy process getting everything done. For the past month, we've been basically been moving supplies, moving the kitchen, moving office, bunk houses, RVs. And, pretty much, we've got the majority of it,' volunteer leader Vicki Weesner said.

But the new camp still has some obstacles to overcome. It has no power or running water.

'Basically we've learned to adapt by doing first response and disaster relief. You learn that sometimes you don't always have the conveniences. So we've gone back to operating on generators for our power.'"
