beautiful sunrise

I can't forget to add this—probably the most beautiful sunrise I have ever seen was on the beach in Pass Christian, MS. Yes, I got up to see it. Just once.

The choir volunteers in front of the tool trailer the choir purchased.







Me spreading mud—trying to even out the dirt under the house. Some of the houses just plain needed more dirt!







Becky installing bi-fold doors. 












John & Tim installing a floor.









Here's the landscaping we did in front of Emmanuel Baptist Church.











The choir at Emmanuel Baptist Church was a woman named Keisha and her three children. Her other son played the drums.







Tom gets the keys to his new house and unlocks the door. What a moment!











Connie opens her new house.

katrina relief trip

This week I'm down in Pass Christian, MS, with 12 other people from our church choir doing Katrina relief work. Today we sang a couple of songs at Mt. Zion United Methodist Church. Then this afternoon, we went to a Mardi Gras parade and right now are enjoying a Super Bowl party. We will be working tomorrow!
