We had an amazing week!!!! Hosanna Industries and lots of fantastic volunteers dedicated their time and talents to help us get our Franklin Street duplex renovated and ready to go!

We are truly blessed to have everyone there helping us and "thank you" doesn't even begin to cover it. And the crew even made some extra time to help us move in furniture!

We just have some finishing touches to do.
Have a wonderful Easter and thanks to all of the amazing people who helped or even just thought of us during this project! We appreciate you tremendously!
