Crossroads (IL) - JAN 2010

Every once in a while life takes a turn for the worst, such as a hurricane destroying the better part of a city... but it seems like God always sends someone along to offer encouragement and support in even the toughest situations of life. The team from Crossroads Community Church can certainly be described as those who lift others up when they need it most. Crossroads responded to the need of volunteer workers very shortly after Hurricane Katrina devastated New Orleans, and have continued to lend their many hands in the rebuilding effort, with their most recent trip being a 2 week stint to close out 2009 and welcome in 2010 with HH2G. They poured a whopping 2600 man hours into homes and buildings in desperate need of repair. In winter of 2009 they completely sheetrocked two homes, and this year they accomplished no less! To our dear friends in Illinois, words cannot express what a blessing you are to the people of New Orleans, and to those of us at HisHands2Go. Thank you so very much for your support and encouragement.
