Habitat
for Humanity is a Christian Housing ministry whose purpose
is to eliminate poverty housing in the world. It began in
1976 and is currently in over 50 countries. Calgary Habitat
has built more than 30 homes since 1991. St. Pius X Parish
formed a work group to volunteer their services in helping
to build houses for Habitat.
August 2006 - August 2007
Habitat for Humanity is building the Leo & Goldie Sheftel
Court, a 12 unit townhouse complex at 1803-17 Avenue NW,
in partnership with the community and with the families who
will own them.
This location is in our
parish! Our Manna
Ministry is organizing
Volunteers from St. Pius X parish to serve lunch to the
workers at the jobsite. Volunteers are still needed for
some dates. Please call Laurette (288-1256) if you would
like to help. Thank you
