Housing Development Alliance

The Monticello Christian Church from Indiana is with us this week, and have been busy with various tasks. Half the group spent time constructing the foundations for a home in Defiance, then moved to B. Cornett's in order to paint her bathroom and replace an old cement platform. Cornett is a sweetheart, and the group loved spending time with her. Then, because of a sudden downpour and Flash Flood warnings, the group skidattled to the Pavilion and helped paint the main hall. Now, they're back in Defiance and are eager to do more construction. I swear, one volunteers even yelled "YES!" this morning when he was told the good news. Talk about being a morning person.




The other half of Monticello did some home repair for G. Williams' home. They stained his stairs, and a few other chores, before the vicious storm flew them to Hazard High School. There they cleaned up classrooms, hallways, and basically helped the school get ready for the new herd of students in the Fall.

The weather outside looks pretty ominous, but the forecast predicts that the rainy clouds will pass over by noon. Let's cross our fingers that Mother Nature will allow our volunteers to work uninterrupted. Are you listening, Mother Nature? Let my people work!
