Guest ? John Wood, Tom Nuchols
John Wood was a special guest from when Habitat first began building houses in Mt. Pleasant in 1992
Shane Winn looks on as Judy Capps, a friend of Angela, made the dedication. Friends of Angela’s from Hope’s Landing, were some of the many volunteers that made this such a success story.
Steve and Sally Newton from Nacogdoches drove up to help us celebrate our 25th Habitat home. Reverend Newton, the pastor of the Presbyterian Church in 1993, guided a group interested men and women through the detailed Habitat for Humanity chartering process. Our first home was completed in 1994. Sally wore many hats during those years. She painted, taped and bedded, and laid floor tile and just about any other job that came along.
Aaden and Adrian, Angela sons, are proud of their new home and greeted guest in such a mature, gentlemen like manner. Adrian, sixteen years old, worked many hours helping their future home to become a reality.
Friends and volunteers from our sister affiliate in Pittsburg also came to help us celebrate this special home.
Jaye McDade, from the Pittsburg affiliate, congratulates Angela Saucedo
Linda Baxter, from the Pittsburg Habitat Affiliate, and Vickie White share a moment of happiness and the feeling success for a job well done.
Rosalie Chambers and Tom Nuchols chat, perhaps remembering the many houses Rosalie worked on in years past.
It was a wonderful party for a lovely lady and her family. We are looking forward to the next one.
What a great group of women at the Women’s Build this year! We are dazzled by these volunteers and their dedication to putting families in homes. Thank you, women of Mount Pleasant!
We love our youngest volunteers!
