Williamson met with Sanders in his office after the sermon. Sanders disputed the notion that Williamson seemed moody or uninterested in the New Orleans community. “I think he’s in great spirits because I literally had to have one of my deacons pull him out of the crowd. They didn’t want to let him go, and he didn’t want to let them go. He took a lot of pictures and talked with a lot of people. He didn’t seem to be in any way, shape or form distant. He’s ready to do what he came here to do, is what it appeared to me.”
