The teens hang out on the balcony after a day of hard work.
Team leader Geo reads a passage from the bible to the kids.
A cooler is taken to the awaiting truck to be loaded for the days work.
Two teens read passages while having "Small group" meeting time. Used as a reflection point, it is essential in keeping moral up in the face of so much destruction.
Another Day another adventure. Went to New Orleans yesterday. The destruction was crazy. There is so much that they have not rebuilt. All the houses are still marked with spray paint, stating how many dead, alive and when the house was searched. It was depressing but upon talking to some of the locals, hope in humanity was restored. They are all doing so much to help each other out. FEMA is a much hated organization around here. Due to red tape, thousands of FEMA trailers are sitting on properties, ready to be moved into but not able to because of no inspectors to give it the green light.

I have to keep these short as my days are extremely full. I get up at 6 and go hard until midnight. I am shooting 300 pictures a day and have minimal editing time...
See you all soon.
