On July 23rd, 2006 a group of
nine men from Freedom Fellowship and Fairview Baptist Church traveled to
New Orleans to participate in Project NOAH. This project is a
partnership between the North American Mission Board of the Southern
Baptist Convention, Louisiana Baptist Convention, New Orleans area
associations and churches, the Salvation Army, and Promise Keepers.
This group worked for a
week on a house in the Gentilly section of New Orleans that was
flooded by 8-10 feet of water. They repaired the roof and
replaced virtually everything that was wood in the house because of
massive termite damage. Though the temperatures and humidity
were high, and the work physically demanding, the group accomplished
all that they set out to do. We plan to get another group
together for a winter mission! Contact
Cliff if you're
interested in participating.
UPDATE: Since this
page was originally posted, volunteers from Freedom Fellowship have
returned 3 more times (twice in the winter of 2007 and once in the
summer).
We have finally added
some pictures to the site!
