Outreach to others is one of the most vital components of our faith. We are passionate about making our communities a better place for all. By serving others, we feel the transformative power of our beliefs and see the positive change that it brings to the world. As we continue our work of empowering people and building sustainable programs, we see a light and a renewed resolution in those we touch. The greatest things happen when we listen to God’s call, open our hearts wide, and serve.

Habitat for Humanity
Home Build
Watch for next build dates
PRUMC and Habitat believe that every person should have access to a decent, safe and affordable place to live. Because of that belief, we team up each year to build homes for hard-working families.
Our strong partnership with Habitat is founded on its mission of sustainability. Each recipient of a Habitat Home works by our side to build the home. They also attend required homeownership education classes on maintenance, budgeting, and more. Because of this type of “hand up” outreach, we are building better communities that last.
This is a fun and rewarding volunteer opportunity that builds homes, communities and hope. Check the News page for updated information and links for our next build.
