The Presbytery of the Pacific (@PacPresbytery) Dream Team arrived in South Louisiana (#SOLA) on Saturday, May 6, 2017 to assist in rebuilding the homes and lives of the families affected by the massive flooding that took place back in August 2016. Over 150,000 homes were destroyed, and thirteen people lost their lives. Our team of eleven is comprised of 2 pastors and 9 volunteers from various churches within the Presbytery of the Pacific including: Calvary Hawthorne, First Inglewood, Angeles Mesa, Community United, Wilshire and Mililani Presbyterian Churches. Pray for our volunteers as they embark on their mission!
Faith without works is dead. -James 2:14-26
