The Beginning of the End




An exciting project is coming to a close. For the last year and a half our family has been involved in a project to build affordable housing for young women that are leaving the foster care system and would otherwise have no where to go. At only 18 years old! Mama has been a board member and Callum and Papa have tolerated lots of projects and shopping trips to get things ready. Well, this weekend was the big set up day and it looks amazing! The housing is above the administrative building of our church so it is right in the heart of town and the girls will have lots of mentors, nearby. Everything is brand, spanking new and we had lots of help from the community to pull it all together. Next weekend is the Grand Opening and in the coming weeks, the women will start moving in!
