Habitat for Humanity - Raritan Valley
October 3, 2009
On Saturday, October 3, 2009, a group of about fifteen (15) Good Shepherd members helped with some home-building activities at a worksite for Raritan Valley Habitat for Humanity, a local affiliate of Habitat for Humanity. Though it was tough work, everyone enjoyed being able to help others to have an affordable home in our area. Good Shepherd has strengthened their ties with RVHFH and expect to participate in other work projects in the future. Enjoy the photos of our activities below.
