New Orleans -  Katrina Reconstruction Mission

On Sunday, April 15 2007, our church’s senior-high youth group traveled to

New Orleans to repair a house damaged by Hurricane Katrina.  Eight youth and five adults made the trip. 

 

Working through the Louisiana Disaster Recovery Ministry of the United Methodist Church, the group spent four full days hanging drywall, taping, mudding, sandpapering and texturing the walls of a house in Violet in the St. Bernard Parish. 

 

The house had had flood waters that reached the twelve-foot high ceiling in the living room.  The one-story house is owned by a young couple with three children, currently living in a mobile trailer ten minutes away while their house is being repaired by mission groups. 

 

The materials used in the repairing of the house are made possible by money given by United Methodists churches through-out the United States.  In the section of New Orleans where we worked, the United Methodist Church has repaired over 1100 homes with another 2000 homes on the waiting list.

 

We had an exceptional group of youth who made the trip.  They worked hard, accomplished a great deal, and enjoyed each other’s company.  They did themselves proud.
