Special Thanks to the UMC...

Special thanks to the United Methodist Church for the opportunity to volunteer down in New Orleans and for opening up their church to my mother and I as well as all the other teams. The Disaster and Recovery Station there is doing an excellent job in providing front line assistance to those in need in the Gulf Coast. As I was leaving on the 27th, the Eastbank Station, in Kenner, LA, where I stayed was expecting a group of 109 people who would be staying for one week. Check out there website because they have so much valuable information. http://www.laumcstormrelief.com/

I do have more pictures of the actual teams from Chicago and New York but I'll need to scan those and then load them in.

Also, Patty from Raleigh who is a long term volunteer in New Orleans has a blog so feel free to check out her page. www.funnystrange.com/patricia

Check out Carol's website who was also a part of the crew during our visit:
