Christ Church's 25th Habitat For Humanity House (back to top) 25th Christ Church Habitat For Humanity House Being Built In Honor of Aimee Norman - The time has come to sign up to build this year’s Christ Church Habitat House and we need you! 2012 also marks the 25th year that Christ Church has built a Habitat House. We can think of no better way to mark this wonderful occasion than to honor our own Director of Outreach, Aimee Norman, with this year’s build. Aimee is dedicated to all things outreach, but she has a special love for Habitat. Several years ago when she first started working with outreach at Christ Church, Aimee was instrumental in getting many Christ Church parishioners involved in Habitat for Humanity. Please help us honor Aimee and sign-up to serve! Construction begins on Thursday, February 23rd; Friday February 24th, and Saturday, February 25th and it will continue all Saturdays from 9:00 AM - Noon through Saturday, May 5th (minus the Saturday prior to Easter). We need people to minister in the following areas: wall framing, roofing, plumbing, electrical, siding, drywall, painting interior and exterior, tile and hardware installation, concrete driveway, lunch making/serving, kick-off party planning and dedication at completion. We also need new crew leaders and people to help clean-up each Saturday. To sign up to serve please contact this year’s Habitat Co-Chairs, Lisa Williamson at ltwilliamson98@gmail.com or Carrington Coulter at carrington.coulter@morgankeegan.com. If you want to make lunches for our hungry workers, please contact Peggy Horne or Lynne McAdams at gns@christchurchcharlotte.org. Please also fill out the Habitat Volunteer form. You can come by the office or go here to download and fill out the Habitat Volunteer form. This helps give us a sense of everyone’s skill set and schedules. Please return all forms to the front desk.
