Description

Within hours of his arrival at New York City, Chaplain Ray Giunta was escorted directly to Ground Zero. There he was witness to the heroic and the horrific, the miraculous and the macabre. He spent 68 days digging through the rubble, carrying away the bodies, and - perhaps most important of all -being there to be a conduit to the love of Christ.

Whenever people saw the cross on his helmet, they had to tell him stories: stories of sacrifice or shame or fear or faith. God @ Ground Zero recalls these stories interspersed with actual e-emails sent from his PalmPilot has he worked in the shifting rubble. Out of the horror of 9/11 rises a testimonyto the love and faithfulness of a God who is always near, waiting with the power to heal.
