When We're Helping We're Happy

Our team the first week
Nate, Steve, Megan, Evan, Bro. Monts, Bishop Feuz, Elders Flake and Fredrickson

 Our family has had the opportunity over the last few Saturdays to help in a clean-up effort in Southern New Jersey.  There was a major storm that came through the area about a month ago and took down many, many big trees.  Some areas were without power for about a week and some still are.  Mormon Helping Hands is the arm of the church that has partnered with VOAD to help elderly, disabled, or poor people who were not able to clean up their yards or pay for someone else to do it.  It has been hot, tiring work, but it has been very rewarding.   

Hooking the wheelbarrow on to the top of the car.  Yes, the wheelbarrow made it there with us....but were very glad that the Kelly's could bring it home inside their van.
