April Showers (& volunteers) bring May flowers and more Volunteers!

April Volunteers included GRACE United Methodist Church who returned again, as they have done every month for quite some time. They worked on replacing Hurricane Wilma damaged walls and ceilings in a home.



First Congregational Church Youth Group came from New Hampshire, this incredible group has done many mission trips, many overseas in third world countries. They ate dinner with the local Methodist Church who fed them in return to hearing stories of their wonderful adventures. On their last night in town they went to Church with Anthony at True Vine in Harlem and were impressed with Pastor Fred Gamble's message and the enthusiasm of the congregation! During their Spring Break Field Trip they repaired roofs and demonstrated their incredible work ethic and spirit.
Our long term volunteer from Michigan Art, continues to help us out this month working on several small projects.
May blooms into a great start with bright volunteers that continue to travel to our rural little town to assist our Hurricane Wilma victims.
Grace United Methodist came again this month and continues to work tirelessly repairing remote location homes on the first Saturday of the month. They have been so regular that we can almost count that they will be here each first Saturday of each month.
Another group traveled quite a long way, all the way from Washington State, they arrived Saturday and will be here till the end of the week. Check back for pictures and updates of what they accomplish!

Please ignore the dates on the pictures, our volunteer photographer has not quite figured out how to work that particular setting!
