00:00never get the coast back to where it was.

00:04And his response was, well, if that's all we do, we will have failed.

00:09Instead, we're going to invest and make the coast as great as it can be.

00:16And when you go up and down this coastline, when you look at the people and

00:21the industries that are here in our state today, 20 years later, it is incredible.

00:30The greatest people on earth, the greatest economy on earth,

00:35the greatest place to live on earth, all because of the work of everyone in Mississippi.

00:44While today is a solemn reminder of unthinkable tragedy,

00:49it is also a reminder of the good things that can come from Mississippians working together

00:56for the greater good.

00:58In the days that followed, Mississippians did what Mississippians do best.

01:04We showed up, and Mississippians showed out.

01:08Neighbors helped neighbors.

01:11Literally tens of thousands of volunteers from all over our state and

01:16all over our nation showed up to help.

01:19Today, we thank those volunteers.

01:22And one of the things that makes me most proud to be a Mississippian is we remember

01:30those individuals who came here in the immediate aftermath.

01:34And every single time there's a storm or a calamity or a disaster around our nation,

01:40Mississippians give back.

01:44And we show up because we know what it means to give because of the volunteers that came here.

01:51We began rebuilding one home, one church, one school, and one business at a time.

02:00Our state's people were certainly tested, but if you take a look around this beautiful place

02:10now, it's hard to imagine that Hurricane Katrina impacted us in the way that it did.

02:18We have built bigger and we have built better since Katrina made landfall.

02:25We erected bridges and we repaved roads.

02:29We constructed classrooms and we beautified our beaches.

02:33We said to the world, we will not allow any storm to keep us down.

02:40We're going to get up and we're going to stand taller than ever before.

02:45And that is exactly what Mississippians did.

02:53Throughout it all, our faith was tested.

02:57It would have been easy for many of you to sit around and ask, why did this happen to us?

03:08But you never did.

03:11Without it all, and despite the destruction, we thank the Lord for his many blessings.

03:19In the 46th chapter of Psalms, it says, God is our refuge and strength and ever-present

03:26help in trouble.

03:29Therefore, we will not fear.

03:32Though the earth give way and the mountains fall into the heart of the sea.

03:36Though its waters roar and foam and the mountains quake with their surging, the Lord Almighty

03:45is with us.

03:48Throughout it all, we knew God was with us.

03:53And thanks to him, when you look around Mississippi today, you see a meteoric rise to greatness.

04:01We're attracting record capital investment in our state.

04:06More of our people are working in Mississippi today than ever before.

04:10The nation is saying our kids are making miracles happen in the classroom.

04:15And they are proving to the world that Mississippi is not making news, we're making history.

04:24Katrina taught us a lot, but it didn't teach us about ourselves.

04:32We knew who we were all along.

04:35And we knew what we were capable of.

04:39We answered a once-in-a-generation call to service.

04:43And time and time again, we did whatever was needed to help our state recover.

04:50When I think about Hurricane Katrina, I can't help but think about something that as I look

04:59back on it seems extraordinary, I think about Ely's mom, who lived in Ocean Springs and happened

05:10to be a principal in an elementary school right here in Gulfport.

05:19Not long after the storm, Governor Barber made it a priority, correctly so, understanding that

05:26to get our people back, our schools had to be open.

05:31So not long after the storm hit, literally within a few days, we were at a place up in

05:41Jackson that sold campers, motorhomes.

05:44And she bought one.

05:45And she drove it down here.

05:47And she parked it on the grounds of that elementary school.

05:52And she lived there for months and months so that kids could get back in school.

06:00Now that seems extraordinary to me today, as it did to myself then, but as I look back

06:05on it, it really wasn't an extraordinary happening.

06:10It was actually quite ordinary because that's what people all along this coastline were doing

06:17to get ourselves back, to get life back to some semblance of normalcy.

06:25And it proved every single time that when you worry not about yourself, but about helping

06:34others, we will always emerge stronger.

06:38We will always emerge better.

06:40And we will always emerge tougher together.

06:47We know that Katrina's 30th and 40th and 50th anniversary, Mississippi and her people

06:53will still be here.

06:55And they will be a beautiful sight to see.

06:59Each day is a gift.

07:02And we never know what tomorrow might bring.

07:06That's why when Mississippi is challenged, we will always rise boldly to the occasion.

07:14Looking ahead, may we continue to not only invest in Mississippi strength, but also keep

07:20our sights set on what really matters in this life, our love of God and our love of family.

07:30Because at the end of the day, that's really what it's all about.

07:46I want to close by thanking every single one of you for being here today.

07:50I'd especially like to thank Governor Barber, Director Gabbard, the mayor, and the TAG, Bobby

07:59Ginn, for joining us.

08:02Let today be a reminder that Mississippi's story is not about survival, it's about victory.

08:11Let today be a reminder that God will always be with Mississippi, serving as a beacon lighting

08:16our way through the storms and guiding us back into calm waters.

08:22And let today be a reminder that regardless of the mission set in front of us, no matter

08:28how big or how small, Mississippi can and Mississippi will accomplish it.

08:38Because after all, that's just what Mississippians do.

08:43Thank y'all, and may God continue to bless this great state and this great nation.

08:51Ladies and gentlemen, Mr. James Coleman, Camp Shelby Holistic Health Coordinator, will now narrate

09:17the story of the storm.

09:37Good morning.

09:41Peace is the story.

09:46The story of the storm and the story of triumph.

09:52It's a story that begins in late August 2005 as Tropical Depression 12 forms over the Bahamas,

10:02where it rapidly intensifies into a Category 1 storm.

10:08Now Hurricane Katrina makes landfall in South Florida, leaving 1 million Floridians without

10:17power and over $630 million in damage.

10:25But Katrina was not done.

10:29Hurricane Katrina then moves across the Florida Peninsula and intensifies with the warm waters

10:35of the Gulf of Mexico and now moves into a Category 5 hurricane.

10:42The date?

10:45August 28th.

10:47Just one day before landfall.

10:52Over the four days leading to the landfall, residents of the Mississippi Gulf Coast were cautiously

10:58optimistic that maybe, just maybe, the storm would turn as they anxiously watched Katrina strengthen

11:07and head toward our beloved coastal communities.

11:11Monday, August 29th, 2005, at approximately 0610 AM, the eye of Hurricane Katrina makes landfall near

11:24the mouth of the Mississippi River in southeast Louisiana as a Category 4.

11:32Meteorological experts surmised that, given the intense fury of Katrina, that once it made landfall,

11:39the coastline then transformed it into a Category 3.

11:45Then, at approximately 1,100 with sustained winds of 120 miles per hour, Hurricane Katrina then slams

11:54into the Mississippi Gulf Coast.

11:57The National Weather Service reported estimates of upper-level winds at 132 miles per hour,

12:0490 percent reaching landfall.

12:09Then, there was the storm surge as it hit the Florida Panhandle and the Mississippi Gulf Coast

12:19with nearly 30-foot-high winds and rains and water lines that went up to six miles inland.

12:28The eastern side of Katrina produced tornadoes well into Alabama, Georgia, and Florida.

12:36And the coastal region was pelted with up to 12 inches of rain, hail, and flooding.

12:44As the storm continued north, it caused even more destruction, and all 82 of our counties

12:50were adversely affected.

12:55The unthinkable destruction of Hurricane Katrina left us with more than $125 billion in destruction

13:03across the Gulf Coast.

13:05And as it's been mentioned earlier, we lost 238 lives.

13:12But as the Governor said, however, this is not the totality of Mississippi's story.

13:21In 2005, there were no greater people than the residents of the Mississippi Gulf Coast.

13:30Beyond the trauma, beyond the loss, beyond the devastation, a godly purpose emerged,

13:39personified by strength as Mississippians embarked upon our journey of recovery,

13:47epitomizing hope and resilience.

13:51Yes, the unprecedented challenges in aftermath of Katrina, yes, did galvanize us in our opportunities

14:00and sustainability for recovery.

14:03But our state did not sit and wait for a response.

14:08We did not wait.

14:09We did not ask for anyone else to fix our problems.

14:14We put our hands to the plow.

14:17We made things happen.

14:21Though they were misplaced and without homes, like all of us throughout the state, there's

14:2951,000 members of the Mississippi Army National Guard that were the tip of the spear in our state's

14:39recovery.

14:40At this time, I would like to recognize the members of our Mississippi Army National Guard

14:46and let you know that we as a state commend you for taking point and taking the leadership

14:52in our state's recovery.

14:54In the book of 2 Corinthians, chapter 4, verse 17, it reads,

15:23For our momentary light affliction is producing for us an absolute, incomparable, eternal way to

15:37glory.

15:40Hurricane Katrina took us by surprise and took our breath, but only for a moment.

15:48Hurricane Katrina helped us to see the best in who we are as Mississippians, as a region,

15:53as a country.

15:56History will remember Katrina for the profound loss and destruction it caused.

16:03But our history, our history will remember that Katrina showed the world who we are as Mississippians.

16:13A state that went through the storm.

16:16But emerged in triumph.

16:18God bless you and God blessed America.

16:22Truly compelling words there as that gentleman narrates what they call the story of the storm.

16:31A live lookout in Gulfport, Mississippi as Mississippians remember Hurricane Katrina 20 years

16:36later.

16:37Take a look at the right side of your screen as you plan your Friday with us.

16:40Coming up at noon Eastern time, New Orleans will mark the Katrina anniversary.

16:43Then at 1 PM Eastern time, Minneapolis hospital shooting update.

16:471038 is the time we need to step away for a quick two minute commercial break.

16:54Okay.

16:55She'll be taping out or she'll destroy you.

16:59I'll see you next time.

17:00Bye.
