We arrived in town last night around 1130 and got settled in. We met up with our disaster relief station friends this morning for our tools and work assignment. We are working on the home of a lady named Patricia and her family. She left the day before Katrina hit and ended up staying in California with her family for over two years. She returned and has finally received assistance for her house. She has gotten a new and improved roof and we are her fourth work team. We are hopefully finishing up the sheetrock tomorrow and mudding. There is a lot of new sheetrock in her house.
Tonight we talked about Moses and being "available." Patrick and Sarah have enjoyed their experience and seeing the need some people in America have. It has been fun to get to know each other as we work. Tomorrow we will work at Ms. Patricia's hopefully visit our friend Ms. Earlene (the sweet lady we worked with in March). Then we are going out to eat.
Below is a team picture with Ms. Patricia and Daryl. And that is one of her cute dogs. And no, he is not going poo in the yard. There are other pics in the album I made located to the right…
