KATRINA RELIEF TRIP 2

After an amazing first trip to Ocean Springs from 12/28/05-1/5/06 to help with relief work, we have decided to organize a second relief effort. We will continue to partner with Woodbury Lutheran Church here in MN, and this time we will stay at and work St. Paul's Methodst Church in Ocean Springs cleaning out houses and yards, putting up sheetrock, and just helping out any way that we can.

We are so excited to currently have 35 people signed up for this trip. We would appreciate your prayers as we are in the final stages of preparation. You can also pray for us while we are in MS, that we would have safety in travels and in the work we are doing, that we would be able to bring help and hope to many needy families, and that everyone who goes along would be able to make some great connections and build friendships with each other.

If you want more details about this trip, contact Rebecca at heyrebecca@csf.net. Partial funding for this trip has been provided by the University of Minnesota Community Initiative in partnership with Coca-Cola.
