Hands of the Carpenter

 

Mission:  Hands of the Carpenter collaborates with communities abroad to provide homes for our neighbors in need.

Hands of the Carpenter:

Responding to our Lord’s call, we share our expertise in the planning, design, and construction of homes. We invite you to join us by offering your prayers and financial support so that we may succeed in our mission as the hands of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Carpenter.

Collaborates with Communities Abroad: 

We partner with the Catholic Diocese of Arlington Mission Office that works in a remote and materially poor area of the Dominican Republic on the Haitian border.  With community leader participation, we identify housing needs, plan projects, contract with local laborers, and use locally sourced materials. As a result, the communities that we serve gain the experience to carry out similar projects in the future.

Provide Homes for Our Neighbors in Need: 

In these communities, many families lack housing that provides adequate shelter and safety. Our home projects address these basic needs so that our brothers and sisters in Christ have increased opportunity to pursue higher needs in their lives.
