Round 2 to assist flood victims in Baton Rouge - Our first trip to Baton Rouge to assist flood victims was so successful and so rewarding we are doing it again. This time we will be going up on the morning of Saturday, September 17th. We will meet at our church and carpool up to the house we will be working on. You can leave when you want as long as you have a ride. If you are interested in going with our group and being part of the Baton Rouge recovery effort please let me know ASAP. We need to let the Presbyterian Disaster Assistance Coordinator know how many people we will be bringing. I will send further information on what you need to bring and where we will be going to those who are coming with us.
