And busy!!! Really you can't understand either statement unless you are here. We have 26 concurrent job sites being worked. We've completed... I don't actually know.... A dozen or more with more coming online.
Some have been large rehabs of kitchens, bathrooms, painting, roofing, windows, walls, electrical, all in one structure and the progress on those after 2 days work has been incredible. Some have been tear downs and cleanup of properties so that rebuilding can even begin... 2 years after Katrina... Many have been small roof repairs, half roofs, some drywall, steps, painting, community cleanup, and other efforts.
Five jobs are helping the local Nazarene mission effort complete the work left over from their relief operation which is no longer receiving volunteers. The cooperation of the Body of Christ is incredible. People participating in these jobs are working through 5 different organizations (church, Servants Unite, Hilltop, Bayou Recovery, and the Nazarene group) to serve seamlessly. Not to mention the impressive cooperation we've gotten from the local government and other disaster relief orgs supporting the efforts here.
What an amazing work He has given us. Below are a few pictures from the last day's work:
