We believe the Lord has called us to demonstrate His CRAZY IDEAS for those in need wherever they are…Millard Fuller in No More Shacks…

All of us involved in Habitat seem to be peacemakers… he writes..

 

During this time of Mosque debate, of division, of pointing fingers, pray and join us to be crazy peacemakers, to be builders, to be BUILDERS OF HOPE..OF HOMES..with that in mind join us..build with us, join us…we will have thousands of volunteers this year, just in Westchester county…

 

This morning Neir walks in from Israel, before he returns to Jerusalem…Raheem stops in the Restore to say hi Jimmy, and the Reverand stops to ask us for support..for supplies for his congregation..crazy peacemakers, builders of community of all backgrounds..

 

Yesterday I took a long  tour of Orchard Street..I met with neighbors, hired someone to help us with our site, met Chuck the veteran who with pride takes care of his land…Omar, who went to Lincoln High, who will help us…..i walked by the homes that are burned now..that I saw people killed in a fire 12 years ago…I saw land that I know God will help give us.

Then I returned, and I walked and a I prayed as  I walked..that we will change this neighborhood for great things, homes, leaders, and transition…wont you join us! Pray for Orchard Street today…for all the angels..for our work..for our building, for a NEIGHBORHOOD OF HOPE AND LOVE!
