JUNE 4-10, 2023 (PICTURES) – In a Youth Outreach Program, four of our High School students had the opportunity to spend a week of service in Appalachia. This annual trip is to Habitat for Humanity of Kanawha and Putnam County in Charleston, West Virginia for a week in June.
The teens worked on 2 houses. They had to move dirt against the foundations for drainage, they leveled the rocky terrain in order to be able to spread grass seed and to cover the seed with straw so the birds wouldn’t eat it. They made numerous trips up and down the hills removing large rocks so the grass would grow. They helped prepare a house so that the dry wall could be completed, and cleaned a house so the new owners could move in. They worked very hard every day!!!
Thank You to our teens and adult volunteers for being the hands and feet of Jesus. And thank you, St. Michael Parish, for your support.
