Adult Hurricane Katrina Project

Here are some photos taken with First Christian Church of Canton, Ohio.

We had a great week together as we served our homeowner Charlotte Smith. Above is the team working on her home. We spent the week measuring, cutting, and installing insulation in the walls of her house and ceiling!

We finished on Thursday afternoon, so we mowed her lawn, trimmed around the fence, and picked up tree limbs and debris.

On Friday we were able to put a new skirting around a mobile home trailer for a family.

We had a wonderful week serving the Lord together. Mark helped keep us laughing all week!

Great Job Brent, Ashley, Justin, Mark, Marie, and Debbie!

On August 29, 2005 Hurricane Katrina destroyed the Gulf Coast of Mississippi. Over 1200 of more than 1800 homes in D'Iberville, Mississippi (just inland from Biloxi) were destroyed or made uninhabitable. Two thirds of D'Iberville's population lost their homes, lost their jobs, lost hope.

A team of adults from the Canton, Ohio area will be serving the people of D'Iberville the week of July 15 - 21, 2006. We will minister to their hearts, help rebuild their homes, and bring them our hope. In cooperation with the D'Iberville Volunteer Services (DVS) we will spend the week in hanging drywall, roofing, painting, being the hands and feet of Jesus, our hope.
