Faith Builds 2009
Willing hands and generous hearts will build new home near Rothwell Church
On June 15, shovels were in the ground to build a Habitat for Humanity home for Lily Alfaro and her two sons, Ales, 8, and Christian, 10. This new home will be built by the faith community in the National Capital Region and Rothwell will be part of the process.
Not only has Rothwell committed over $4,000 towards the project but is also getting involved on the worksite. (click here to download the full story)
