What we do:

The Cluster 13 Ministries Housing Program provides people in our local community with stuff like housing repairs & other things like ramps for the wheelchair bound. We do everything from plumbing, to electrical, to roofs, to general house repairs. We rely on volunteer groups of people to come & do the work. Out of town & Out of state groups are provided with a place to sleep as well as shower & kitchen facilities. We are always looking for more groups to do more projects because of the never-ending need for this kind of work. Last summer we did several roofs as well as several projects that required minor repairs.We completed 12 projects last year. We have more than that to do this year.
