All 11 of us have arrived and settling into the Peace Lutheran Mission Center, our home for the next week. Below you can see our accommodations. Heavy sleepers needed, nice echo for the snorers.
The great news is that all of the driving was uneventful and boring. 12 hours in the car has made us all antsy and ready to work. The time change and time zone shift has also got us a bit of schedule and anticipating a very early morning.
For me, I am always reminded of John 1:4-5, "through him was life, and this life was the light of the human race; the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it." Over 5 years ago, a great darkness washed over this region of America. Tomorrow I get a chance to use my hands, my back and hopefully my wits to help bring a little more light to New Orleans.
