The dates have been set for our annual Help Build Hope event - June 23 and 24. Now all we need is you!
We will build walls for an entire Habitat for Humanity House in one day (actually just a few hours).
Friday the 23rd is for those skilled in cutting lumber (the pre-cut day.)
On Saturday the 24th, all ages and skill levels are welcome! Children are welcome to work with their families. And childcare will also be provided.
Hammers and nails are provided, so you only need to bring yourself, perhaps your family, a friend or two, work gloves, and sunscreen.
Help Build Hope is held at Christ United Methodist Church, 12755 NW Dogwood St. Learn more and sign up through their website at https://cedarmillchristumc.org/serve/help-build-hope

Join us tomorrow in the Lighthouse for a Baby Shower for a Family Promise mom.
A baby girl is expected. Family Promise says the mother can use everything: crib, stroller, playpen, clothing, toys, etc. More expensive items, such as a crib, may be ‘gently used.’ Diapers are always needed but any other gifts are greatly appreciated.
Family Promise is very pleased that Westside is willing to provide the space for Baby Showers. Thank you all for your continued support of Family Promise.
We are beginning a 6-week class this Sunday, May 7, at 8:30 am in the Family Room (with a break on Mother’s Day, May 14.)
