Jason, Jackie and the Atchison bros began the final phase of construction on a home near the border yesterday. The family were assisting has dedicated their lives to the mountain people of Mexico for almost 30years. This home serves as their sanctuary, providing them with a place of respite a few times a year. We had the privilege of erecting the steel framework and framing the interior of this home a few years ago. We are excited to complete this project and aim for it to be testament to the incredible efforts of this extraordinary family.

BIG NEWS!!! 🙌🏻🥲❤️Officer Tim Pace Family Home Project Update

Last week, the home passed its final inspections, and last night the Pace family spent their very first night in their new home. We couldn’t be happier for them!

It has truly been our joy to serve Tim and his family. They worked right alongside us through this process, and it was an honor to build their home back.

First and foremost, thank You, Jesus. Your grace is what makes something like this possible. This project is a miracle, and every step has been guided by Your love and faithfulness.

To our Hope With A Hammer family—thank you for showing up again and again. Your generosity, hard work, and servant hearts continue to amaze.

One thing that made this project especially unique was the incredible support from so many Blount County businesses and others nearby. Countless materials, services, and labor were either donated or provided at deeply discounted prices. Your generosity made a tremendous difference.

A special thank you goes to our Field Director, Tony Arnold, for faithfully overseeing this project while pouring countless hours of hard work into it. Tony, thank you for your generous sacrifice and for giving this project your heart and soul.

As a small way of saying thank you, we’ll be hosting an appreciation BBQ and will be reaching out to everyone who helped.

What a blessing it has been to watch God work through so many willing hands.

The drywall finisher and exterior painter are scheduled to complete their work next week. The back patio and the front pad for the stairs are on track, and the gutter crew and flooring crew are lined up. I have a crew ready to install the culvert, and the interior paint crew is also scheduled. Additionally, all the interior trim has been ordered. - Tony
