Santa Ynez California sent us eight volunteers who started working last Wednesday. They worked on Joan's house for four days and made some real progress on the drywall and painting. They also hung cabinets in the laundry room.
A first for this village was participation in the presbytery's cluster home. The Presbytery of South Louisiana has taken on one home specifically so local church members can give back in appreciation for the volunteers coming from elsewhere. This home will be renovated primarily on Saturdays so that people living and working here can join in it's reconstruction. This team enjoyed meeting Annie Mae and working on her home.
Team Leader Carolyn front and center.
Just got word that Carolyn is bringing a team back in May. That's awesome!!!
This California team is the first volunteer group to stay at Olive Tree. We hope they will come back and bring others and that by the time that happens we have a real kitchen in operation.
