Hearts & Hands Project: Hurricane Ike Relief & Recovery Ministry -- A Diocese of Iowa Mission

Bishop Scarfe & Pat Genereux are in Galveston, Texas, leading a team of intrepid Iowans doing the good, hard work of storm recovery.

The photo above shows four of the crew on a welcome break: Bishop Scarfe, Bill Trotter (St. Martin's, Perry), Chuck Lane (Trinity, Waterloo) & Robert Adams (Christ Church, Cedar Rapids).

Pat Genereux reported on Valentine's Day: "...at William Temple Center after gutting a house on Saturday -- all are tired, but feel they've done good work." Earlier, Pat noted being physically, mentally & spiritually exhausted... but, gave thanks for all who had come from Iowa to work on the Hearts & Hands Project.

Your prayers are appreciated!

Note from Pat today: more quips & photos to follow. Stay tuned for more Iowa mission news.
