St. Francis along with other Washtenaw County Catholic Churches, donate and support the Habitat for Humanity Catholic House.

Habitat for Humanity is a nonprofit, ecumenical Christian ministry founded on the conviction that every man, woman and child should have a decent, safe and affordable place to live. We build with people in need regardless of race or religion. We welcome volunteers and supporters from all backgrounds.

Catholic House Update

If you haven't been out to the site – now's your chance!
Sign-up to help on Friday, May 13th and Saturday, May 14th to help finish the home, 1383 Hull, Ypsilanti 48198, at http://h4h.volunteerhub.com/Events/Browse.aspx.

The family – M and J– have been on site as often as possible – which most weekends has meant one of them has been on site EVERY SINGLE DAY!
They are so grateful for the love that has been outpoured to them and their three daughters.

We'll start planning the dedication shortly and I hope you are all able to come out and see what a life-changing work you've been part of.

The work continues!

The front step proved to be a challenging obstacle for volunteer crews...but in the end they prevailed!
At the same time, interior work continued to make sure this home is up to Energy Star standards for the family. 




Snow day!

Snow doesn't stop our volunteers! Here you can see that the green siding is still intact! The shiny foam board is for insulation in the basement - we want to make sure our homeowners stay warm! 





Working and fellowship!

Everyday brings transformation to the house and strengthens friendships among volunteers and the family!
