Saturday morning Habitat style...a person at the coffee shop, states i want to come out and build with you.
another person states...my construction manager...things are moving great in Bedford, we are doing it..!
tomorrow a synagogue from northeren westchester comes out with us..yes tomorrow and a church group and Goldman Sachs today..what a profound thing going on, what community building, what amazing things happen..
perhaps we need a Habitat cafe in the monring, a community breakfast place to feed everyone and then send them out to work..we are so blessed, I am so blessed to be part of this ecumenical ministry, one of love...did you know a hammer is a tool of WORSHIP.....Did you know sheetrock represent WALLS OF LOVE in haibitat....did you know that TRUSSES, are really HABITAT UMBRELLAS OF LOVE..and basements are FOUNDATIONS FOR THE FUTURE of great generations in habitat...I am sure you did.......
Lets talk about our REBUILDING NEW ORLEANS, AND REBUILDING AN AMERICAN TOWN..
the story of new orleans and mamoroneck...
New Orleans, articles come out on the rebuilding a proposal by a high end builder to total revitalize the city, does it mean gentrification or resurrection of a great city, does it mean demolishing history or preserving it...our last Americorp team is in Charlmette today and they state they are working hard and still so mcuh to do..
today we are in Mamoroneck and Harrison...30 million dollars pledged, nothing going on at all..
no work done on the area yet..no real rebuilding of flood areas..what are we waiting for folks, the only real rebuilding is that of Habitat with homeowners, like today on Elliot Street, and neighborhoods and another street in Harrison for an elderly couple, and another in New Rochelle, our Mettery our ninth ward our
towns surrounding new orleans that were affected..unbelievable, but there is hope with the neighbors with HABITAT!!!!! NO QUESTON!!!!!! in New Orleans and in Mamoroneck and all over the world....
God bless,
