QUOTES

We have the know-how in the world to house everyone. We have the resources in the world to house everyone. All that's missing is the WILL to do it."

“For a community to be whole and healthy, it must be based on people's love and concern for each other.”

“Everyone who gets sleepy at night should have a simple decent place to lay their heads, on terms they can afford to pay.”

I see life as both a gift and a responsibility. My responsibility is to use what God has given me to help his people in need.”

While people had been building houses for thousands of years, and often with the help of neighbors, no one seemed to be building houses as an expression of God's love.

“If large masses of people in this country were starving there would be a swift public reaction to feed them. Similarly large masses of people without housing should be immediately helped.”

It's not your blue blood, your pedigree or your college degree. It's what you do with your life that counts.
