What an awesome way to begin our time in Grand Isle! We joined our partner church, The Community Church of Grand Isle, in worship this morning. We are excited for the upcoming week of service!

After finishing at the garden, we headed over to a community members home to help organize and declutter the destruction left from the hurricane.

After our day of ministry, we visited the local snoball stand and ate dinner on the beach! It was a great way to end our day.

One of our projects on Wednesday was helping a community member move into their home! The homes here are on stilts, so lots of stairs were involved.
