"It is a tremendous provision from God."
Pastor Hudspeth has gas rigs only a few hundred yards from his church's front door and he's jubilant. Shreveport is only one of two urban areas (Ft. Worth, Texas is the other) to allow drilling.

Drilling royalties paid off the mortgage and now underwrite the church's education and social programs.
