Building On Faith A Blessing
Having had the support and help from East Side Baptist, First
Baptist, and Unity Baptist made this house a blessing to be
involved with. Lots of good fellowship and certainly lots
of good food. I have never been involved with a build that
even came close to the good food we had.
I certainly have never been on a build where all the walls
went up, trusses put up, and decking put on, and blacked in
ONE DAY. This will be the eleventh house I have participated
with. This is the first Church Partnership house in Marion
County. This partnership was involved with Habitat International
Building on Faith program that emphasizes church partnerships.
At the time of our dedication over 400 homes were being dedicated
around the WORLD with church partnerships. Over 400 families
lives were changed and their children's lives changed. The
families are fellowshipped with and uplifted to a better socio-economic
level as Habitat is a Christian service that impacts all of
our community.
I would like to list and Thank everyone that worked and helped,
but over 500 names were signed in over 12 Saturday Work Days
and paint the House Week. Some people and companies need to
be thanked.
