With the home buiding option, three days of each trip are devoted to building homes. Each group will split into smaller teams of 4-6 people, and each smaller team will start and complete a home in 3 days. Each home costs $900 to build, which is simply our material cost. The homes are constructed of metal studs, drywall, and cement board. Most construction is done with screws, and therefore; within the ability level of all participants. No buiding experience is required. On the third day the homes are dedicated. Each family is presented with the gospel, and many after experiencing the love of Jesus Christ lived out by the group, accept our Lord as their personal Savior.
