New Orleans says:
'Come join us
. . . again!'
Project Homecoming, the rebuilding effort of The Presbytery of South Louisiana, would like to express our deepest gratitude for the tireless efforts of your group last year in helping to rebuild Katrina-affected New Orleans. We trust that it was a rewarding experience and would like to invite you to return to our city again. As you surely witnessed during your time here, there is still a lot of work to be done, so we are always delighted when volunteers revisit and continue to help us to rebuild. We hope that your group will be one of them…again. All skill levels are welcome.

Detailed update :
We are rebuilding homes (no more gutting and cleaning).
Fall 2007: Working on 20 homes in various stages of restoration. Hired: Two construction managers, four construction assistants to facilitate the reconstruction of these homes and to work alongside you. With these new folks, we can easily add to your own skills to rebuilding these homes.
We provide all tools and materials. Trades-people who wish to work with their own tools may bring them.
John Calvin PC has changed accomodations and are only able to house up to 15 adults.
All groups including younger helpers may call us at our Project Homecoming number for all housing availability including John Calvin PC.
We appreciate your thoughts and prayers until we meet again. Bob Tobey and Susan Wade look forward to working with your group again. God bless you with your continuing prayers and return to New Orleans.
