We know we are a long way from home when the local schools are closed when the weather forecast is for a possible 1 – 2 inches of snow!
The homeowner for whom we were rebuilding her house was excited that we were completing her home today! So excited that she kept saying thank you to each and all of us. Finally she said that she would just bake us some cookies! She returned an hour later with fresh baked warm chocolate cookies! Yes, the cookies were really good. But most rewarding was her excitement about seeing her flood damaged house being repaired! And to be done today! And we from First Pres Pittsford were part of this. One day at a time, one home at a time.
One more of an estimated 1,000 homes requesting help rebuilding from the May 2, 2010 flooding! Many out of money with only partial reconstruction completed. We can be proud of the week nby PC USA’s Presbyterian Disaster Assistance, and our own Church support of this mission team and Nashville.
