All faith organizations (congregations, schools, networks) are invited to join us in this life transforming ministry!

Faith in the Neighborhood
A faithful effort to transform houses, lives and neighborhoods

A partnership between:
Habitat for Humanity of the Chesapeake
Paul’s Place
Faith organizations from the Baltimore & Anne Arundel County Area

The goal:
To build affordable housing throughout the Baltimore City area and Anne Arundel County

How it gets done:
- All partners contribute to the purchase cost & rehab of vacant homes
- Faith organizations send volunteers to work on rehabbing the homes
- Habitat of the Chesapeake homeowners work side by side with volunteers and purchase the homes when completed.
- Homeowners and staff are available to come and speak to your organization.

How YOU can get involved:
- Make a pledge  to support the work through prayer or volunteering
- Sponsor a house:  Raise the funds and volunteers to build a house
- Join a coalition: Several coalitions exist that allow congregations to partner together to raise the funds for sponsoring a house.
- Join the Interfaith Volunteer Corps:  A coalition of the three Abrahamic faiths that raise money, consciousness and walls to build homes and bridges between the faiths.
- Faith in the Neighborhood partner/Covenant Congregation : contribute prayer, time and/or money to the building of all the homes we work on.

Where will we be building?
-  In Washington Village/Pigtown on Ward Street.
-  The Interfaith Coalition will build wherever needed.
-  The Annapolis Coalitions will be working on Clay Street in the spring.
-  A new Annapolis Interfaith Coalition will be building on Clay Street in the spring.
