Well, the clock is running. We are now under 36 hours from our flight taking off. Please pray for our team. As we get close, the enemy is on attack. There are some great things that God is calling us to do to bless his people in New Orleans and the enemy will do whatever he can to hinder us. One member of our team is really sick. Pray that he experiences a quick recovery. We treasure your prayers as we near go time. God bless each of you.

Welcome
"Your people will rebuild the ancient ruins and will raise up the age-old foundations; you will be called Repairer of Broken Walls, Restorer of Streets with Dwellings" (Isaiah 58:12).
On August 29th, 2005, everything changed for the city of New Orleans and its residents. Hurricane Katrina hit, the levees broke and an entire city was destroyed, laid waste underneath the floods. 80% of the city was flooded with waters up to 15 feet deep. Homes were ruined and lives destroyed by this furious storm.
Now, nearly three years later, the devastation done, what lies ahead is rebuilding. From June 28th through July 5th of this year, 20 people from GRPC in Bear, Delaware, will be in New Orleans helping people rebuild their lives and their homes.
As a team, we have adopted Isaiah 58:12 as a theme verse as we are prepare for our trip. On this site we will introduce you to the team, share prayer requests and, once we are down there, will post stories and pictures of our trip. May God be honored and glorified as we take his mercy and grace to a city so desperately in need.
