For many years, it has been the desire of the Housing Ministry of Christ Church to sponsor a house through Habitat for Humanity. This vision has become a reality with the Lord leading us to go even further and join with Habitat in a 5 year multi-house construction partnership. The commitment is called "Building on Faith Partner Sponsor Program".

The program, which is new to San Antonio, was designed for organizations that have never sponsored a whole house before. Using a multi-year approach, the program provides for a 1/3 discount on the cost of the first house. Our first house will cost $30,000 with the cost of each additional home increasing in increments of $5,000 until the 5th home, which will cost $50,000.

Success in this program will require a community of support from our entire parish. Gifts of time will be needed in many areas including construction teams, food prep & delivery, advertising, scheduling, fundraising and of course, much prayer. We will also get to know the family moving into the home as we work side by side with them during construction. This family and the four to follow will know that their homes were provided through a partnership of faith and love, in the name of Jesus, from their friends at Christ Church.
