“Being accepted into the Habitat family has been an honor for us. It has changed our lives.”
Rose’s story:
I am a single mother raising my family alone. I am also taking
care of my 47-year-old brother Mike, and my 43-year-old sister,
Karen, who both have mental disabilities and cannot live on their
own.
Being accepted into the Habitat family has been an honor for us.
It has changed our lives.
We are a family of seven and it has been a struggle to find an
affordable place to live with enough room to house all of us.
We could not afford a four-bedroom home, so we had to settle for
a three-bedroom apartment. We have a bed in our living room to
accommodate a sleeping space for everyone. It has been very hard.
I have been praying every night to God that he would open a door
for us so that we may live in our own home and have some stability
in our lives. Then I heard about Mt. Hood Habitat for Humanity
and I thought, “Hey, maybe this is what God wants me to do.” So
I attended the orientation, filled out the application, and endured
the selection process. We were accepted. Praise God!
As I watch the homes being built, I think to myself: these
are the most beautiful homes ever built; and what makes these
homes so special is that they are made with loving hands of
God’s people.
Dreams do come true. Rose moved into her home in September 2006.
