We have arrived!

Last night, the team safely arrived in D'Iberville, MS. Our flight plans were split up such that we would all arrive in Houston, TX on the same flight, but we would then have 2 different flights to get to Mississippi. The camp was going to hold dinner for the earlier flight, and it was recommended that the later flight should dine out. Shortly after we arrived in Houston, the displays indicated that the earlier flight into Mississippi was late. It turns out that we would all arrive at D'Iberville at the same time. We went to the camp at the same time and dined as a unified family.

Afterwards we held camp devotions. We joined a team of 40 from Virginia Beach; their 5th trip. Here's some of what happened:

• They were discussing a donation of drywall for future use by the teams. The story began with a house that was destroyed by Hurrican Katrina. The house was in the process of being rebuilt, and they ordered large quantities of drywall. However, a subsequent inspection uncovered that the permit for the rebuilding was fraudulant, and that the rebuilt house was to be condemned. They couldn't return the drywall they ordered. They generously donated the rest of their unused drywall.
• One team is working putting up kitchen cabinets.
• Another team is installing insulation into a beautiful large house, and it seems that the "house keeps getting bigger" as the work progresses.
• A team is painting Miss Lois' house. She is an 80 year old woman who lost her husband post Katrina. She's very grateful for all the support she is receiving, both in her home and in her heart.
