Mission Statement: Congregation Relations Committee

Habitat For Humanity’s goal of building decent and affordable houses with and for all of God’s people of modest means is a mission of faith congregations throughout the world. An Affiliate’s Congregation Relations Committee seeks to establish and nurture a close working relationship between the Affiliate and the faith communities in its geographic area to accomplish that goal.

Members of the Committee provide congregations with information that educates and stimulates actions that result in building good homes in partnership with families that would otherwise not be able to afford them.
