Sunday, Dec 28th

We attended an awesome church service at St Luke's church this morning, had lunch with the congregation after church and looked at projects.

These are two of the houses we will be working on this week.

This house needs alot of finish work, such as installing kitchen cabinets, flooring and trimwork.




This one is gutted and cleaned, wired, plumbed and partially insulated so a group will start "rockin" drywall tomorrow.


We come down here for construction projects but the time spent with the homeowners and their families is worth way than the project itself.









We also managed to fit in a little sightseeing for the team. We drove down scenic St Charles Avenue and looked at all the beautiful old homes.
After which we attempted to drive to the French Quarter but missed a turn. The moral of the story is...don't get anywhere near the Superdome on a Saints game day!

We did make it to the Quarter late this afternoon for supper and a walkabout.
This is the Holocaust Memorial along the riverwalk.


Time to get some sleep as tomorrow morning we hit the ground running.

I apologize if some of this is not lined up quite right. Blogger is not cooperating! Argh!

Lovely pictures and thanks for the update, Lori. I haven't seen your face yet though, in any pictures. I know, someone has to run the camera!

In the group picture, I can see the love of God on everyone's face. A perfect picture....except it's missing you.

I can't wait to see more. May God be with each and every one of you. He is so proud of all of you!
