Habitat for Humanity

Habitat for Humanity is a nonprofit, Christian housing ministry that builds and repairs houses, with help from volunteers, allowing them to provide the housing at more affordable rates. 

Habitat was the service theme of the week. Tuesday through Friday we volunteered with the organization 8:oo am to 3:3o pm. Tuesday and Wednesday we set away at retiling the floor for a whole house. It was a simple process, glued the new tile over what was previously set. This task was far from as easy as it sounds as we had to cut intricate patterns into to fit around doors and edges around the house. Since these edge pieces took more time we didn't get to finish the house we started between Tuesday and Wednesday. On Thursday, we were able to come into a house that was about the same spot in progress as the one we left on Wednesday. We worked hard and diligently through Wednesday and was able to finish the second house we worked on. This is included washing up all the dried up glue left on tiles, mopping, and painting the baseboards. It was very fulfilling feeling, knowing we put the last touches on a house before a family moved in.
