This is our original Mississippi home. We are situated in a soccer field beside a church in Gautier, Mississippi. When hurricane Katrina passed through there was about three feet of water covering the field.

My wife and I spent 2 weeks in Mississippi in the aftermath of hurricane Katrina as volunteers with the Christian Appalachian Project. CAP is a faith-based organization from eastern Kentucky. CAP's mission is to help the poor as they try to make better lives for themselves. With the devastation from Katrina it was felt the immediate needs of the gulf coast residents were greater than those in eastern Kentucky. Nearly 40 CAP volunteers and employees went to help for 8 weeks.
