Volunteers from Redeemer Lutheran in Damascus, Maryland, Take a Home from Foundation to Shingles in a Week


At the beginning of January, our friends from Redeemer came back to see us. This group has been coming to partner with us twice a year for the last 4 years and continue to be faithful to our relationship with them. These wonderful people spent five days with us in Pratt City rebuilding a house. On Monday (day 1) there was nothing on the property other than a large concrete foundation slab. When they left to go on Friday (day 5) we were putting shingles onto a finished roof!

For the latter part of the week, we were also joined by our friends from the Care Center. Two of the guys from the Care Center Ministry, Chase and Aaron, came to help us put shingles on the roof and also blessed the group with some lunch time gospel music! It was such a blessing to have three partners working together on one site to make a difference in our community! Thank you Care Center and Redeemer for your long standing relationship and God bless you all!
