When Hurricane Katrina finally passed in 2005, Reverend Randy Wells found the New Orleans church he had been leading for eight years, and his house, 10 feet underwater. He was one of the lucky ones.
His uncle’s home in Brenham, a town an hour northwest of Houston where bluebonnets dot the rolling fields in the spring, was a safe place to go, so he and hundreds of other displaced families made the journey to Texas. When they arrived, many found temporary housing in apartments and hotels with help from Faith Mission, a local nonprofit and longtime shelter.
