We are pleased to announce that building has officially begun on the latest Habitat for Humanity home in Tempe, thanks to the Episcopal Habitat Coalition. This is a wonderful opportunity for our community to come together and help provide a new home for a family in need.
The address is 1967 E. Don Carlos Drive, Tempe, AZ 85281. There is a drive on the south side of the street that serves the six homesites on this parcel. Our house is the first one on the right side of the drive. Parking may be a little difficult as this is a mature neighborhood. You may need to park on an adjacent side street and walk a bit. Start time is 7 am so arrive by 6:45 am for sign-in.

More about the ministry at Saint Anthony on the Desert
The Episcopal Habitat Coalition (EHC) of which Saint Anthony is a member, in partnership with Habitat for Humanity Central Arizona, has begun building its 44th Phoenix metro area home located in Glendale. The EHC, as a sponsor of the home, provides both a financial contribution and labor for the construction of the home. There is an opportunity for Saint Anthony parishioners to participate in this build either as volunteer labor or also as auxiliary support. This will continue spring through early July and will provide ample opportunities for interested parishioners.
Build days are on Saturdays, with limited work also being done on Tuesdays for those with free time during the week. No previous construction experience or skills are necessary as there are experienced volunteers on-site to help you learn as you go, and tasks are available for those with a wide variety of physical abilities. The minimum age for volunteers is 16.
In previous years, Saint Anthony and the EHC would designate specific Saturdays, by parish, for volunteer groups to join the build. Currently, we are open to parishioners to work the Saturdays of their choosing or, if we do get a group of St. Anthony members who would like to work as a group on a specific date or set of tasks, that can be accommodated also.
If you are interested in learning more about the Saint Anthony Habitat ministry, in volunteering, or about Habitat for Humanity in general, please feel free to reach out to Jon Thom.
