Here we are enroute having lunch: Dave Spillman to the left, then Eleanor and Jack Brown. Dwight behind the camera. The picture on the right is the Tennessee Welcome center.

Here we are at the home of Susan and Mathea whom we assisted by installing a door and closing up the shell of their new home.

ALAS! That is all the photos I can fit on this web site. I will try to do some links to other sites and put the photos on those sites. This may take me a while. Interim link.

Susan's husband was killed in an accident last November and Susan and Mathea have been roughing it over the Winter. Much of the time they have lived in their tent on their 5 acres in the mountains.

We also worked at the Hancock County Elementary School complex. We installed fence posts for a 5^th grade garden. Another group will pull the fencing next week. The school is trying to interest students in gardening/farming which is a purpose for the garden. Last year the lesson learned was that with a lot planting, cultivating, an fertilizing, a neighboring ground hog was the sole beneficiary of the harvest. In addition, we worked a little on the electrical and plumbing of a clothing center adjacent to the school. This new building will allow the clothing center, a mission out reach of the local First United Methodist Church, to provide clothing for impoverished children. Unfortunately, we did not manage to bring back any pictures of either of these projects.

We did get some pictures of the Jubilee Center where we were headquartered during our stay:

The above food products found at the Jubilee Project store (and on line) are produced at the Clinch-Powell Community Kitchens. This is an economic development initiative of the Jubilee Project. Click here for more information on the Kitchens.

Third from the left is Diantha Hodges our guide and home missionary.

Below is a current project that mission teams are working on to build replacement housing for qualified locals. The home is being built on property owned by the beneficiary. The house will replace the mobile home at the right when finished. The recipients for this aid are qualified by an involved process and some of the money comes from federal grants.
