Day 1 of House #9

Our first day on-site was great! God blessed us with beautiful weather... and lots of amazing volunteers! With over 30 women working hard we were not only able to meet our goals for the day but we exceeded them beyond our expectations! It's always great to see what a group of people can accomplish when working together for God's purpose.
Day 1: All walls [interior and exterior] framed and raised!

Getting Ready to Raise the First Wall!

Okay... "On 3! 1..2..3" Up it goes!

The Class will be held at Habitat for Humanity Tulsa : 6235 E 13th StTulsa, OK 74112
