We are going to be taking a group to go help out in Antioch tomorrow (Thursday) afternoon. We will meet at the church at 2:30 pm and return early evening. This is a project organized by Hands on Nashville and I have already been in contact with the project coordinator. In order to participate, you will need to register through the Hands on Nashville site (www.hon.org). Simply go to the site, click on "View a Calendar of Current Flood Volunteer Opportunities", find May 13th and click on "Flood Cleanup Volunteer Reception Center", and finally click on the 3rd project down located in Antioch (37013). Even though the project says from 10 am until 7 pm, they need lots of help and would welcome us coming in the afternoon!
Once you're registered with Hands on Nashville, you can assist with any of their volunteer activities! If you have trouble with registration, please feel free to contact me! Please also e-mail me at goodshepherdyouth@gmail.com or call me on my cell phone at 584-2733 to let me know that you are coming!
Also, there are other opportunities to assist with St. Luke's Community located in West Nashville. This is a community we regularly work with and their residents were hit particularly hard. They will have 2 available shifts in which to help out this Saturday May 15th, from 8 am until noon or from 10 am until 2 pm.
Thank you to all who have already brought by canned and non-perishable food. Foods that can be quickly prepared without having having to be cooked (such as tuna or peanut butter) are particularly helpful. St. Luke's is especially in need right now and we are doing our best to deliver the food as quickly as it comes in!
Please feel free to contact me with any questions!
Grace and peace,
Holly
