Mission Team Travels to Slidell Eating All the Way

The Mission Team left F.C.C. at about 5:15 A.M. this morning. We have managed to eat our way across several states. We started out with Kathy McHaney's Homemade Blue Ribbon Biscuits. Yummy. Thanks Kathy.

It has now become Mission Trip tradition to eat at Ruby Tuesday's. This is where we had lunch.

We have also snacked on brownies baked by Rhona James and Chocolate Chip Cookies baked by Gail Wagner, and snacks provided by Drew's Grandmother. Thank you all very much!

We arrived safely in Slidell about 5:00 P.M. We will be staying at F.C.C. of Slidell. There is another group here from Walnut Cove, N.C.

A total of 14 people and 1 shower in our building. We will have to go over to the shower trailers at the Methodist Church. We will get our work assignment in the morning.

There are still signs of the awful effects of Hurricane Katrina. Many places are still not rebuilt as you can see in the pictures. One of the church members told us that 80% of Slidell was flooded.
