Narconon New Life Retreat and Local Church Join Forces to Bring Hope to Flood-Ravaged Community
Hard Work Pays Off
Narconon New Life Retreat
Narconon and Beyond the Walls Church rallied volunteers to clean up Eastover Estates, demonstrating the impact of community support and compassion.
On June 8th, approximately 25 volunteers from Beyond the Walls Church, Narconon New Life Retreat, and the local community came together for a day of service and cleanup in Eastover Estates. The event was spearheaded by Pastor David Brown, who was deeply moved by the struggles facing the residents of the neighborhood.
"Lately I feel I have walked among those in the valley of the shadow of death," Pastor Brown shared in a heartfelt call to action on social media. "Among those who find themselves imprisoned. Not so much behind the walls of concrete and steel but in bondage to drugs, poverty, and hopelessness. Eastover is a community of Livingston Parish among whom many of these can be found. On June 8th, there is a group determined to carry the light of hope into Eastover."
Volunteers worked tirelessly from 8 am to 5 pm, cleaning up trash, removing fallen debris, and emptying abandoned trailers. The Narconon team, represented by two staff members, saw the event as a perfect opportunity to give back to the local community and work alongside other caring individuals.
Ray C., a staff member from Narconon, expressed his gratitude for the experience, stating, "It was nice working side-by-side with others that care about the community. It was an overall friendly environment. It was hard work, but the area desperately needed some help and hope, and the other volunteers were very friendly."
The collaboration between Narconon and Beyond the Walls Church exemplifies the power of community partnership in addressing the far-reaching effects of addiction and poverty. By coming together with compassion and determination, these organizations are helping to restore hope and create positive change in Eastover Estates.
"Pastor Brown's tireless efforts and unwavering belief in the potential for transformation are helping to make what once seemed impossible a reality for the people of this struggling neighborhood," said a representative from Narconon. "We are honored to have been a part of this initiative and remain committed to supporting individuals and communities affected by addiction."
The Eastover Estates cleanup project serves as a reminder that when people unite with kindness and a shared purpose, remarkable things can happen. Narconon and Beyond the Walls Church invite others to join them in their ongoing efforts to bring hope and renewal to communities in need.
