On the second anniversary of Superstorm Sandy, residents of Midland Beach held a remembrance service at the Oasis Church on Greeley Avenue in Midland Beach, Staten Island, New York, led by Pastor Tim McIntyre. Residents packed the small church to reflect on the trauma of that day and how it has altered so many lives, in many ways not for the better. The community remembered the pain and confusion of that horrible day and recognized that while they have come far, there is still much to do. Remembered too were the neighbors lost and the reality that two years later, too many are still waiting for the aid that was allocated but has yet to be distributed. Please view this video that tells the story of how far this community has come, how far it has yet to go and its resilience in the face of adversity.
