Did I mention that Saturday and Sunday were dry days with blue skies? We are starting our Monday in the rain with a forecast of 50% rain for the week … and it rained all day.
Our team broke into subsets who worked with HOPE leaders today. One group stayed at St. Paul’s to paint closets indoors; another worked on a wooden ramp and railing for Mr. Davis on Main Street, who was handicapped; the last group worked on framing an indoor partitioning wall at Lee’s house on Water Street. Lee had written a book about the horrors of the Katrina experience and gave a signed copy to each team member for being a concerned soul -- a blessing to the team.
HOPE had some issues getting organized to give the team jobs that could be done in the rain, but we got through it and got some work done for our homeowners through the showers – a blessing. Team Blogger

And we are off on a very rainy day to do whatever is asked of us – with anticipation. Marilyn May

I gaze around and wonder how I’ve come to be in Biloxi, MS on a rainy, humid day in August. Was this my plan? Was this my longing? And THEN I remember…the gentle whispers in my ear. 911-NYC; but did not get there; dangers just might be closely lurking. The Biloxi 2007 trip; the timing was not right in my life. Biloxi 2008 and the whispers became loud and clear, “Put your money where your mouth is.” or is spiritual terms, “Follow your heart.” So – now I know and understand and my soul begins to be satisfied.
