We arrived Sunday evening in the Volunteer Village to mmet our hosts, Cassie and Jessie, two Young Adult Volunteers, who manage the village and organize the week's chores-cooking, cleaning, devotions, and working with TRAC, the organization that sets up and supplies the job sites. We selected our "pods", the two person coated cardboard structures that would be our homes for the coming week. Each was equipped with one light and a vent for heating, if absolutely necessary. Showers were in a nearby trailer and porta-johns were also available. Unlike many PDA villages, Houma actually has a permanent building on the premises where we cooked and ate our meals and gathered for group activities and devotions. Monday morning we set off to our job sites--two homes in Montegut, LA which were under construction while the owners lived in trailer. Our jobs included general clean-up, taping and mudding the drywall, sanding and painting the exterior. We had some instruction early on but our technique was less than perfect. Nevertheless, we perserved and left the buildings markedly improved and further along the path to completion. We had an opportunity to speak with the owners, their family members and neighbors. They shared their stories with us. At the end of the week, we presented them with some quilts that had been made by members of a church in Minnesota who have adopted that as a ministry to those in need in the gulf. Some of us also took a post-Katrina tour of New Orleans and experienced first-hand the devestation that is still shocking after all this time. The trip was not only a great opprotunity for service but also for fellowship. A special bond developed between us as we adjusted to our accomodations and our work on the sites. We also had an opportunity to sample the local cuisine (including fried alligator) and attempt the cajun two-step at a local dance hall. many thanks to Rob Stotz who was our leader--ever calm, patient and resourceful. The rest of the volunteers were: Kathleen Browning, Anne Evans, Knowles Harper, Ruth and Tom Hamilton, Wally Hamsher, Sue Henry, Cherie Kitchell, Seb and Betsy Lasher, Mike and Kathryn Mackensen, Candace McDermott (friend of the Mackensen's), Bev and Ed Merson, Sue Owen, Fran and Roger Rooney, Dan Thomas and Janet Tysse.
