Day One - Sons of a Carpenter

It was a great day helping Denise!

Our neighbor, Denise, received a new window in her bedroom because the old one didn't open and created a fire hazard. She is very thankful!

Two more energy-efficient windows are needed for the front of Denise's house.

Denise is handicapped but working and living on her own. It is a privilege to help someone with such a beautiful heart. Message us to learn more about how you can help Sons of a Carpenter.

It's Day One for our neighbor who now can enter her home easily on a new ramp! By God's grace...

Can you imagine suffering all these tragedies?.. Your younger sister is mentally handicapped due to Leukemia at a young age... Your brother is paralyzed from the waist down due to a car accident. .. Your mother is admitted to a home for dementia because your father can no longer take care of her... Add your own personal suffering from a handicapping autoimmune disease. It prevents you from entering your own home without great difficulty.

Our neighbor has indeed endured all of this and more. She once served others by teaching handicapped students and now she needs that same care and concern.

She needs a ramp. We can help.

It's time to show our dear neighbor some grace! Please join us in showing Gods love and mercy, September 30 at 8 AM.
