Today we began our
first work day. Our high school mission trip is a little different this
year for our team assignments. The other youth groups that are here this
week requested to stay intact which means that our group is also staying together.
Our group has split into two teams that are working across the street from each
other. One team is working on the roof, and I have to say this is the
steepest roof we have been on so far. Pray for sure footing! Across
the street, our other group is working at the house of a wonderful woman named
Billie. This morning we were greeted at her house with a lovely note, and
a cooler full of cold water and bananas. Here's a photo:

During our day, we also took a tour of the path of the tornado which was an
eye-opening experience of the extent of the destruction.
This evening we enjoyed our second round of worship music as well as our first
discussion video. This evening we watched a testimony by Mo Isom, former
soccer goalie for LSU. You can watch the video here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7ptcSmKIihA
Please pray for our work day tomorrow. We will be have a full work day
tomorrow and after the prep we were able to do today we should be able to make
great progress on both sites.
