Hurricane Recovery Mission Trip to Houma, Louisiana on Dec 17 & 18
/As you know, Hurricane Ida hit the gulf coast of Louisiana three months ago and caused a lot of damage. With this series of missions, we're going to offer the survivors some hope and a little help cleaning up a little corner of the mess.
The LA disaster relief coordinator is still working out the details on which United Methodist Church that will be hosting us, but it's less than 3 weeks away now, so I wanted to get this out there for your careful prayerful consideration.
What are we going to do: First, we're going to drive over there to Houma, Louisiana, then talk a bit to hear a story or or two, and then of course we'll get to work on some small cleanup project.
We will be doing outside work like cleaning up tree debris and /or putting a tarp on a roof; basically whatever they need.
When: Friday - Saturday, December 17 - 18, 2021
Schedule:
Depart Crestview: 6am Friday
Arrive Houma UMC: noon Friday
First shift: 1-6pm Friday
Second shift: 8am-1pm Saturday
Depart Houma UMC: 2pm Saturday
Arrive Crestview: 8pm Saturday
Who: So far, it's just me and Kyle Lusk, so we need your help too.
Commentary: We'll be operating out of the Houma UMC and staying there over night, we need to bring along our own air mattresses and bedding (sleeping bags) and they will be providing a us some floor space, restrooms, and showers and a few meals to boot.
If you want to know how the first two trips went, then definitely ask Pastor Ronnie, Carson Hale, Jody Woodward, and/or David Hill about their experience.
Please consider making this trip with us.
Please forward this on to anyone that you think might be interested in helping out. Thanks!
In Christ We Serve,
