A battered bell tower was all that was left of Christ Episcopal Church in Bay St. Louis, Mississippi, after Hurricane Katrina. Groups and individuals from all over the country have volunteered time and resources to help Christ Episcopal in their recovery process. Today the congregation meets in a Quonset hut on the property, but they go to the tower to ring their bell.

In this photo, Presiding Bishop Katharine Jefferts Schori stands by the bell tower with Ann and Todd Ousley, Bishop of Eastern Michigan.
