New Orleans work



Suited up for protection from mold, members of a disaster recovery team from First UMC, McAllen, and the Methodist Church of Mexico remove furniture from a New Orleans home. For two weeks after Hurricane Katrina, flood water stood more than four feet high in the house. Every item in the structure, home to an 82-year-old woman, was taken to the curb to be hauled away by the city.  The inside of the home is to be gutted.
