[nabs-l] volunteering and doing missions

[bookwormahb at earthlink.net]

    Hi all,


This list is sure quiet.  I was thinking this is the time of giving around the holidays.  Have you participated in an outreach project?  Anyone done Habitat for Humanity and if so what did you do and what alternative techniques did you use?  Can we hammer and drill safely?  

For those of you who are religious, have you been on mission trips?  I would like to do that someday.  So far I have been to a shelter to serve lunch with my church.  I have volunteered for the talking book library and political campaigns.  So what are you all doing lately?  I hope to hear someone has done Habitat because that is something I am interested in but I don't know how I can contribute.  I think I could paint  and mix and lay concrete outside.  Look forward to your responses.
