Habitat: Meet the Catholic House Family

I’m happy to announce that the Catholic House officially has a fantastic family assigned! They were just shown the house last night, so this is hot off the presses.

M and J and their children: F(9)  M (5) B(3)

M works in the custodial department at U of M, J doesn’t work outside of the home. They are parishioners at Christ the King and have known Scott Wright, Social Ministry director at St. Francis for many years.
They are so excited to be moving into a home being renovated by people they know and love. The girls were already  claiming rooms and choosing paint colors with me while their parents were looking at the house with our construction team yesterday,
They’re already hard at work on their sweat equity hours – so I’m sure you’ll see them at the site! Make sure you say “hello” if you see them on the build.
In Christ,
Maggie Porter

You're invited: OPEN HOUSE - Today!

The Catholic House is getting shown off TODAY as part of our Open House Series – please feel free to come by any time between 4:30 and 6:30 – I will be there and would love to chat with you and show off the fantastic progress that we’ve done so far! If you’ve volunteered on this house, this is a chance for you to show off your work to your family and friends – without the hardhats!!!
