Habitat for Humanity

The Habitat for Humanity program ensures that a qualified family will have a sound environment in which to live and flourish.

The wall raising for our Apostles' Build was Saturday, September 27, 2008. The address is 1925 Kennedy Street, Melbourne, FL 32935. The home will be for Sabrina Parks and her grandchildren, Dillon and Connor.

Apostles Build Project

It is amazing how an idea can connect with something deep in our hearts to excite and motivate us. In Brevard County, churches have responded to a simple idea called an Apostles Build project to construct houses in partnership with families in need. In an Apostles Build project, 12 churches, or a coalition of churches, come together by raising funds, providing labor and prayer support to serve others, in the way that Jesus' apostles served. With Habitat for Humanity, churches can share God's love by building houses, and reaching out to their neighbors in need.

Habitat for Humanity will be joining the 12 Apostle Build churches that include: Advent Lutheran Church; Allen Chapel AME Church; Chapel by the Sea; Eastminister Presbyterian Church; Eau Gallie First Baptist Church; Faith Viera Lutheran Church; Filipino Mission of the United Methodist Church; First United Methodist Church; Immaculate Conception Catholic Church; Presbyterian Church of the Good Shepherd; St. John's Episcopal Church and St. Sebastian's By-The-Sea to walls and finish completion on the future home of the Parks Family, located at 1925 Kennedy Street, Melbourne, FL 32935.
