Getting Ready

I'm sitting in a fine hotel near Yosemite National Park posting the first entry to this blog. Outside my hotel room is some of God's most glorious creation. All I can say is Wow!!! What a contrast. In eight days our team leaves for mission to Gulfport, MS. Thousands of families are still living in FEMA trailers on the Gulf Coast two years after Katrina's wrath. Our goal is to spread the love of God and if possible help eliminate FEMA trailers from the lives of a few families. You can be part of our team. It is not too late. Just contact Lisa Conley at the COS office at 636-441-2434 and let her know you would like to join us.

This blog was created to get you, the reader, involved in this mission. Periodically we will post information prior to our departure. Once we leave, our goal is to post every day to keep you informed of our progress and the daily events of our mission. Your comments and responses are encouraged.

We believe we can post short videos of our mission. The only problem is we do not have a video camera with a digital file format output such as mpeg, wmv, etc. If you have such a camera and are willing to trust us with it, we will attempt to use it to post video of our mission on this blog. If you can help, contact the COS office at 636-441-2434 and let Lisa Conley know. She will notify me via email so we can make arrangements. Even without the video, we will post pictures daily.

Please keep our team in your prayers.
