We're finally connected! We have been making connections here in Central City with the Guys at Nehemiah and with the people we are coming in contact with.
We've had a great first couple of days. We arrived safely on Saturday and went to church on Sunday here at Living Witness. We have James and Joy Williams joining us from Florida. They are here to learn about what we are doing in Central City and take what they learn back to their church and spread the vision of what God is doing in New Orleans. It has been so great to spend time with them and partner with them. Pray for them, as they will be heading back to Florida today.
We have been exploring St. Charles Street, and the lower ninth ward. The weather is glorious, and a repreive from the long winter.
Our team worked on hanging sheetrock on the ceiling upstairs, and putting in a new door. We ate lunch with the guys and had authentic Red Beans and Rice. They treat us like old friends and it is such a privilage to come back and renew these connections with our friends. Seeing some old familiar faces and even the new faces does our hearts good! God has been blessin' us "real good"!
We are using Brother Bob's computer, and therefore can't put any pictures up yet...but we will keep trying. We are obviously having technical difficulty, but we will persevere! Thanks for the prayers...we have so many stories to tell, and look forward to sharing them all!

Say "Hi" to Brother Bob and everyone else for me. Glad to hear that progress is being made, and that relationships continue to build and grow. You'll be on the road again before you know it...
Can't wait to share the pictures and stories when you get back. I'm sure that you've had your share of struggles, but I'm confident that you're carrying His torch high, and glorifying Him all along the way.
