This was Mission Discovery's last summer to supply teams in the Hurricane Katrina relief effort. While the work continues, the skill level required to complete the remaining work has changed, making it more difficult for our young teams to work there. We just completed some great work in Gulfport, and Biloxi. Here's a snipit of an email I received from U.S. Project's Director Jim Sweeney about the work of Mission Discovery on the Gulf coast this summer (2008):
I had a great week with James Evans. Sally Sullivan came and talked to the group in Clarksdale one night about her adventures with MD. We had a really good week there with a lot of kids in the neighborhood coming to Christ! Mrs. Jamison spoke the last night about how MD changed her life. We have worked on her house for the last three summers a little at a time. She told the group how she was looking at paint for the house with no money to pay for it, but believing that God would provide. Just as she was doing that, this white guy named Jim pulled up in her driveway, the rest is history :)
