Church Relations

Habitat for Humanity was founded as and unashamedly remains a Christian ministry. Homeowners are chosen withouth regard to creed, however, both in keeping with requirements of the law and Habitat's belief that God's love extends to all-regardless of race, creed or nationality. We also welcome volunteers from all faiths-or no faith-who can actively embrace Habitat's goal of elminiating poverty housing from the world.

Habitat for Humanity is a Christian ministry answering the call of the gospel to respond to our neighbors in need. What better partners could we have than local churches? Actively pursiuing and nurturing partnerships with Churches helps us fulfill our mission of demonstarating the love and teachings of Jesus Christ. Approaching churches to be in ministry together is a powerful way to build partnerships.

Many churches have birthed Habitat affiliates in their communities, Macon area Habitat for Humanity was  born out of a sunday school calss at Northminster Presbyterian church. Countless churches house Habitat offices, our office is housed in Glenwood Hills Baptist Church. The challenge of the present is to build on the legacy of Habitat's work over the past generation. We have found the spirit of Christ is alive in churches and are thankful for their partnership.
