Whew! What a busy few weeks this has been! HisHands2Go has facilitated around 75 people in the last 4 weeks- some staying for multiple weeks at a time. With teams from Minnesota, Indiana, Texas, Pennsylvania, and Connecticut (the FIRST team from that state to stay with HH2G!), the months of February and March have proven to be rich in diversity of accents, personalities, volunteer skills, taste in food :), and experiences. Now with a two week reprieve, we are catching up on office work, and gearing up for the next team of 60 from Illinois!

When teams are present at the HH2G facilities, there is never a shortage of things to do... but we wouldn't have it any other way! Already this year- only 3 months into 2010 - HH2G has welcomed more teams than the total amount of teams we had in 2009. Hallelujah! God continues to touch the hearts of people who respond by coming down to give a week (or more) of their time. Our staff counts it a wonderful privilege to serve the volunteers so that they can in turn serve the residents of New Orleans effectively and efficiently.

If you haven't been down to New Orleans yet this year- give us a call and book a trip... and spread the word to your friends, neighbors, co-workers, etc! We'd love to have you join us in serving the people of New Orleans!
