Wheaton’s Gary UMC volunteers build homes in Indiana

A group of volunteers from Gary United Methodist Church in Wheaton traveled to Lafayette, Indiana this summer to build homes with Habitat for Humanity.

Volunteers worked on three different houses, doing anything from caulking to hanging doors, building a mailbox and more.

If you’d like to contribute to Habitat for Humanity, go to garychurch.org/give. If you’d like to participate in the next build in the fall, contact the church office at office@garychurch.org.
