Our team size grew to 50 as we are working alongside two other churches. 

We are dividing up into 5 groups and helping 5 families with repairs on their homes for the week. 

Project 1:

Ms Barbara's house sustained great damage during hurricane Ida. She had a plank ceiling that was water damaged before she had a new roof. A team before us worked hard pulling the ceiling down and got rid of the loose fiberglass insulation. But we found out that the AC ducting was leaking pretty badly and the rafters will need to be strengthened before we can hang the drywall ceiling. We have a team working on strengthening the rafters and we can hopefully get the ceiling done if they can get the AC ducting fixed.

Project 2

Vanessa's home sustained great damage during Hurricane Ida as well. But it's great to see how repairs have come along. Previous teams have helped her but there is still a lot to be done. We were hoping that we could help her with the installation of a new floor but found out that some major work will need to take place to level the floor before new flooring can be installed. 

We will help gut one of her closets that is water damaged and put in new walls. 

Project 3

Mrs. Jerry Jo will have knee surgery soon and will need to be in a wheelchair, hopefully not for too long. But she will need a ramp. A team last week helped start the ramp but ran out of time to complete it. We will pick up where they left off adding railing and spindles to it, which will complete it. 

Project 4:

Mrs. Elvia's house also sustained great damage during the last hurricanes. She just got her kitchen redone but needs some appliances and countertops. There are also some minor projects we can help with, such as lawn care, painting, and the installation of countertops and hopefully a shower stall, a vanity, and a sink in her bathroom. It would be amazing if we could see Mrs. Elvia move to her new house at the end of the week. Some of the ministry money we have can help purchase a fridge and some other appliances for her. 

Project 5: 

A previous team helped Mr. Moses install drywall in his entire ceiling. But it's unfinished. We are taping and floating the ceiling and hopefully texture it. He has a couple of closet that needs drywall still and the bathroom needs to be redone. 

We are happy to see Mr. Moses' house coming together. 

We are so blessed to be a part of those homeowners' stories. 

To God be the glory!
