September 2005

Hurricane Katrina relief efforts started with us sending 5 truckloads of supplies to Ocean Springs, Mississippi.

Some of the supplies that we collected and were sent for relief effort.

Today the 24 volunteers (the other 2 will be meeting them down there) left for Ocean Springs, Mississippi. Meeting at Bethlehem Lutheran Church they loaded up the vans, pickups, and cars with more supplies, work group tools, and sleeping bags. Around 2:30 they were ready and formed a caravan to head for Franklin, Tennessee where they will spend their first night. They plan on pulling into Ocean Springs tomorrow.

Here are the smiling faces before they loaded up!

Watch out for this caravan - they are on a mission! (We apologize for missing one of the cars in the line-up!)

The convey ends with the Johnson pick-up.

Safe travels!
