Hello Kim Larroux! Always there to greet with a smile and kind words of encouragement. Kim is our a.m. receptionist/greeter. Families entering our facility for the firt time are greeted by Kim's smiling face. Kim also answers the phones, takes messages, contributes to the organizational planning, and taking care of #III (Jean Larroux III). Great job Kim.
Clyde Baker came to Lagniappe after running the MTW Disaster Relief site in Moss Point. He faithfully served there and came to the Bay occassionally to visit. Clyde is now a regular, having moved to the Bay. He even brought his own housing, a 10'x 16' structure. It was a shed in Moss Point, it's now his home. Clyde cheerfully gives of his time freely, raising support for his "basic" expenses. Clyde built home for a living and brings a great amount of skill to Lagniappe. God is wonderfully bringing the people we need to do what we do. Ryn has been with Lagniappe since June, having coming as a 'tern.' Ryn has returned to serve during her Fall semester at William & Mary. Ryn loves people, loves to work, and will 'gladly' oblige any request to help. It's amazing to witness the maturity in this 20 year old.
Let me introduce you to Mimi. Mimi was one of two PCA families in the Bay prior to our arrival. Mimi lost everything and continues to live in a FEMA trailer. Daily she commits to coming in and helping out where she can. She calls families we have helped, asks how they are doing, and does basically anything we ask her to do. She also attends worship regularly with her daughter who comes down weekly to worship with us. Her daughter lives in Hattieburg. We are overjoyed that Mimi is a vital part of the Lagniappe family.
