Spring Valley in Missions
Spring Valley UMC has been actively involved in the Habitat for Humanity mission since the early 1990s. As a local mission outreach project, we help build homes for deserving low income families in the Dallas area who might otherwise never have the opportunity to own a home.
Spring Valley UMC is a member of Richardson Area Interfaith Habitat (Richardson Interfaith). This organization of eleven interfaith congregations from the North Dallas/Richardson communities builds houses for Dallas Area Habitat for Humanity.
Calendar year 2009 was another successful year for Richardson Area Interfaith Habitat. We completed and dedicated our 27th and 28th z Habitat houses. In February 2010, we will be conducting our annual Walk-A-Thon fund-raiser. We will build two more houses in 2010. Sometime in early March 2010, we will begin construction on 29th Habitat house. We will build our 30th Habitat house in the Fall of 2010.
