Habitat for Humanity

St. Paul's members look forward to participating with the Habitat Interfaith Partnership to build another Habitat for Humanity house starting in August 2007.  The house will be in the JOSANA area in the City of Rochester and is part of a 10-year program to renovate this area.  In addition to St. Paul's, the other Interfaith Partnership members are:  First Presbyterian, Christ Episcopal, Mt. Olivet Baptist, Rochester Islamic Center, St. Louis Catholic and Temple B'rith Kodesh.  They work together in a 3-year cycle to raise funds and construct a house.

St. Paul's is also participating with Thrivent Financial for Lutherans to build a Habitat for Humanity house in the same area in the City Rochester this summer.  Thrivent provides funds and the Lutheran Churches in the area provide worker support.
