Based on Christian principles, Habitat for Humanity calls together women and men of faith to work together across de-nominational lines, through the theology of the hammer, to build unity as we serve God.

Today, we renew our passion to work toward that day when no child sleeps on a cold floor, who goes without food to pay the rent, or whose whole family lives in one room.
Today is the time to build.

O Lord, challenge us to move outside of our comfort zones, to work together with those who come from different places, speak different languages, have different experiences, but have the same hopes and dreams that we have for our children. Inspire us to build…homes, neighborhoods and community as a reflection of your kingdom where people of all nations and races live in harmony. Bless us in our ministry as we seek to serve you with all that we have, all that we do and all that we dream. Amen.

Rev. Lisa Lefkow is the Director of Development at Habitat for Humanity of Collier County.
