bleach story

bleach, originally uploaded by staarkidd.

Nora tells a great tale about how the store ran out of bleach.. an essential for these folk living in these horrible conditions. They told Paul and Jason in the Warehouse who wrote the need on the prayer board. Within 20 minutes of our boys taking the time to pray for bleach, a truck pulled up loaded with bleach. We were told this happened time and time again! It was exciting for our team to be a part of this experience.

Nothing like a photo-op infront of a cut-out jesus... well, except to include the former male dancer pastor to join our group picture. If you see typos, you can forward spelling issues to joel who helped create our team signs. I won't take any responsibility! I don't know if i should remove the H or replace the A with an O?

I am finding that goodbyes generally don't last very long among friends. Spending time with Yvette was a real treasure that i will savor until we meet again.. soon i hope.

Our final day together, we had pastries and coffee at the world famous cafe dumonde in the French Quarter. It was good to see that pockets of New Orleans are already rebuilding and reopening.
