MIssion trip coming home 3-24-07

Here's David just getting off the plane and then Sarah , Becca, and Rebekah. Sorry for so many postings. But my computer wouldn't let me do 3 pictures at a time. Sometimes it will and most of the time it won't! David got himself on his camcorder. Wish I could get that on here.

Mission trip

Rebekah and Sarah on the plane heading home. The kids loved flying!!!!!!!!

Mission trip

The brick home is one of the houses that the kids worked on. They have a FEMA trailor in their driveway that they've been living in for a year. The other house is what a lot of them look like. The spray painted numbers on the house tells how many people lived there, how many died including animals of all sorts.

Mission trip

The man that lives in this house is 75 years old. His insurance money is running out and he can't afford to buy anymore wood. So, the kids all hammered out all the nails out of his old wood so he could reuse it. Some of the wood was molded and inside his house. He has been living in this house since the hurricane Katrina hit. In the second picture you see some clothes hangers. That is where he had to hang his clothes to keep them dry. This house really touched the kids. Sarah wants to raise money for this man to help him finish his house in a safer environment. So he could buy good plywood.

Mission trip

The group picture has a black man in the middle. His was one of the houses that the kids worked on. The other picture is some of the work that they did. David wasn't on the same team as his sisters. That's why you don't see him in most of the pictures.
