The Dwelling Initiative provides essential modifications and repairs for low income households so they may experience an improved quality of life as a tangible expression of God’s love.
The Dwelling Initiative
Born out of a desire to love our community well by serving the fatherless, the widow, and those in need (Psalm 68:5- 6), the Dwelling Initiative seeks to care for those around us in Durham and the surrounding areas whose homes require significant repairs.
As beloved children of God, we get to dwell in a personal relationship with Him, through Jesus who came to dwell among us.
Safely dwelling in our homes can remind us of the deep security of God’s love for us, and we want to offer others this reflection of God's care and kindness.
