Team 7 is on the way

A group of 23 people left the Columbus area this morning a little after 8 (each week we get closer to leaving on time!). Some were "old timers" returning to Mandeville for a second time and some were "newbes" getting their first taste of what being the hands and feet of Jesus in Louisianna really is. They were all very excited and eager to get underway. One person was so excited that he left his car in the middle of the driveway at Spring Road Church. Our group will be once again be staying at University Church of Christ in Tuscaloosa, Alabama. We are happy to report that not only is University Church being a gracious host, but they are also helping the relief effort by donating $2000 worth of electric heaters for us to load up and take down with us. We are so grateful for their generous hearts. Please pray for the safety of our group as they are making their way down to Mandeville on this windy, cold day.
