I've been thinking about...

...the UCC Habitat for Humanity Home Build.

Our good friend Ron Caputo has helped organized the UCC Habitat for Humanity Coalition. And guess what...we are a part of it!

The Encanto Community Church is proud to partner with four other Phoenix area UCC Congregations (Church of the Beatitudes, First Congregational Phoenix, Shepherd of the Hills, and Shadow Rock) in helping to build a Habitat for Humanity Home in Glendale.

Habitat for Humanity is a nonprofit, ecumenical Christian housing organization building simple, decent, affordable housing in partnership with people in need. They keep the costs of building the homes down by relying on the efforts of volunteers...like you and me!

If you have never been a part of a Habitat for Humanity build, now is your chance. As a church we have agreed to provide 2 volunteers per work day. Those work days are:
  • Saturday February 6 from 7:00 AM to 3:00 PM
  • Saturday February 20 from 7:30 AM to 3:00 PM
  • Saturday March 13 from 7:30 AM to 3:00 PM
  • Saturday March 27 from 7:30 AM to 3:00 PM
  • Saturday April 17 from 6:30 AM to 2:00 PM
  • Saturday May 22 from 6:30 AM to 2:00 PM
  • Saturday May 29 from 6:30 AM to 2:00 PM
We have information packets available in the church office. Just see Rev. Brian if you would like more info or are interested in helping out. (By the way, for you non-builders we will need help providing food and snacks too. More info later.)

Yours in the journey, Rev. Brian
