Dear Friends in Mission, We have been asked to return to Waverly, TN where the flooding was a year and half ago. They still have around 35 or so houses which need either repairing or rebuilding. Many of you have been there on an earlier trip, and well know the extent of damage. We will be hosted most graciously by the Methodist Church, which has a nice kitchen, large eating/meeting area, and plenty of space for setting up our cots and/or mattresses. In addition, they have shower trailers at the church now. We will be working with the Inspiritus folks, who have done a great job in managing the needs and work there.
