Soon the Liberty community will be home to two or three homes built with the help of Habitat for Humanity.  Much interest has been shown and the Habitat Board of Randolph County started building the first home here in April of 2008.  Much work is yet to be done and volunteers and funds will be needed.  If you can help, please call our church office at 622-4682.  More information will follow as it is available.  Thanks.

Habitat for Humanity of Randolph County is Working in Liberty!

Liberty Home #3

     The "Wednesday Work Crew" reported for work at the third Liberty Habitat Home on July 14 under a blazing sun by 8:30 AM.  In addition to an old codger Habitat Supervisor and a sweet woman Habitat Supervisor, we had individuals from First Methodist and Freedom Family Church, one individual from Seagrove and a lady from Randleman with four teenagers (who turned out to be great workers).  

     Work centered around installing soffit and hardy board on the north gable end….it is now finished . . . YEA! . . . and hardy board installation on the rear of the home.  Some work and some painting on the detached storage building were accomplished also.

     Hickory Grove Church members furnished a sit down lunch at Hurricane Jane’s and all enjoyed the air conditioning for our lunch hour.  For the fourth Wednesday, the same above-noted work crew worked yet again on the rear of the home installing the hardy boards and some work was begun on the soffit and trim on the south gable of the home.  Since there has been no Saturday work crew at the Liberty site during the summer, the other two Habitat homes in Asheboro have surged ahead in the building process.  When school begins again in August the "VO-TEC" students from Eastern High and perhaps some from Providence Grove will be on the Liberty site frequently.

     As has been noted in updates before, Habitat welcomes volunteers with any or no skill level on any second or fourth Wednesday in the month.  Additionally, any group or individuals who will be willing to furnish a meal those days can sign up to do so by calling 622-1998.

  More later……
