In Their Own Words- Danielle

"Each time I go to New Orleans God continues to show me himself in so many different ways. One of the biggest ways this year was in how much hope people still have in the city of New Orleans. Many people we came in contact with want to be back in New Orleans and want the community back. They are doing what they have to do to get their lives back together. It’s probably not the first thing you would think of when thinking of the Central City. It is really neat to see how the Church is playing a role and the impact they are having in the community. It amazes me that God can use anything to bring people together. God is working and it was great getting to experience that first hand and I hope I can continue seeing that." -Danielle
