Lake Square Presbyterian Church, Leesburg, Florida returns to Olive Tree PDA camp for Hurricane Katrina
relief work.
By: Kay Visconti
October 26-31, 2008
LSPC traveled to Olive Tree PDA Camp in New Orleans for its fourth mission trip to assist with Katrina recovery efforts. The nine person crew partnered with neighboring First Presbyterian of Leesburg, Fl, New Life Presbyterian Church of Fruitland Park, Fl and a group from Charolette, North Carolina. Our group leader was Bill Welch from First Presbyterian.
On this trip our team joined other work groups from Illinois and Montana. The LSPC team worked with three different homeowners whose houses were located in the Chalmette area of St.Bernard Parish, the lower 9th Ward, and Jefferson Parish. Many different types of work were done including sanding, painting, laying tile flooring, hanging doors and windows and sitting appliances.
The teams were able to meet their homeowners at the work site and at the Thursday night meal at the camp. Stories and fellowship were shared and lasting memories were made. The team left New Orleans with sore muscles but excited about returning in 2009 .
