Be a part of our work with Habitat for Humanity!

Sharing your gifts to help the less fortunate

Once again St. Joseph Church is helping Habitat for Humanity build houses.  Habitat has offered us 3 days (July 12^th, August 16^th and September 20) to help build new houses.  Habitat will provide all the supplies and power tools, but we need volunteers to help make this happen for these needy folk.  It is only a 6 hour commitment each of the three days for us to help folks that are less fortunate.  We know that many parishioners at St, Joes have some ability to use tools and Habitat will help teach additional skills if needed.  Hopefully you can sacrifice at least one day of your time to help others that need housing.  If you have any questions or would like to help on those days please call Mike Moore (440) 463-3161. 

A message from one of the soon-to-homeowners for everyone “Thank you so much for all your time. Your help is not in vain.  I feel like one of the luckiest people in the world to have all this help. God bless everyone.” She also shared that she is looking forward to knowing that this is her home and to have a sense of stability. Toni has been learning a lot about home construction and finds this to be an awesome opportunity. When asked what her favorite project has been so far, she stated, “I liked doing the roof of the garage. It was the hardest I ever worked in my life but it felt really good. I also liked doing the front porch on the house down the street.”  She considers herself to be a lucky family and wants you to know that all her children are very excited about their new home. 

All of these opportunities are available for sign-up through the link at the top of the page. Those who are working, on-site, need to be at least 16 years of age. If you're between 16-18, you'll need to be accompanied by a parent. All volunteers to sign up using: http://faithbuild.clevelandhabitat.volunteerhub.com/. We hope that you'll consider joining us as there's an opportunity for everyone to get involved in one of these ways!
