I would hope that they would do the same for us,\" said Mason, who moved four months ago from North Dakota to Texas and heard about the need for volunteers.\n\"I didn't want to sit home and watch TV. I thought we could help,\" he said."

                                                                                                <p>They both arrived Tuesday afternoon boats in tow at PowerHouse Christian Center in Katy.</p>

                                                                                                <p>"I want to help our brothers and sisters. I would hope that they would do the same for us," said Mason, who moved four months ago from North Dakota to Texas and heard about the need for volunteers.</p>

                                                                                                <p>"I didn't want to sit home and watch TV. I thought we could help," he said.</p>

                                                                                                <p>They were among 11 volunteers who brought boats to help, said Jeff Jackson, who was working to coordinate their assignments. From Austin, he came to drop off supplies and jumped in to help. With a background that includes church outreach and serving as a life coach to deal with high-stress situations, Jackson said he's been in contact with city officials to coordinate the volunteers.</p>

                                                                                                <p>He identified safety as the No. 1 concern. It's important to keep tabs on volunteers and where and when they go, so if they don't check back in, organizers know where to look for them to make sure they're OK, he said.</p>

                                                                                                <p>The center began operating as a relief center Sunday night, said pastor Robert Burdett at the request of Maria Galvez, the city of Katy's emergency management coordinator. Galvez couldn't be reached for comment.</p>

                                                                                                <p>While setting up the center, Burdett also worked to make sure his family, who live off Franz Road, were safe during the height of the storm.</p>

                                                                                                <p>The center serves as an intermediate stop between the evacuation from a high-water location to the final destination at an area shelter.</p>

                                                                                                <p>By Tuesday afternoon, Burdett figured at least 125 volunteers had helped more than 500 people who came from north and south of Interstate 10 and Old Katy. Burdett already is thinking ahead of what's next after the rescue operation: Cleanup. Cleanup encompasses removal of debris from homes and possibly helping to rebuild structures, he said.</p>

                                                                                                <p>"We won't cleanup and move forward until the water recedes," added Burdett who said the relief effort isn't a new experience for the church, which also helped residents during the April Tax Day and Memorial Day flooding events.</p>

                                                                                                <p>"We have way too much practice in it," said Burdett. "It's not something we want to do."</p>

                                                                                                        <amp-embed width="100" height="100" type="taboola" layout="responsive"
