Why Build and Fix Broken Houses

At 92hands we demonstrate God’s love by helping people in our community to find adequate shelter. At times, this means repairing a house or in extreme cases even building one. But a home is more than a roof and four walls so 92Hands also works with families to share food, water, materials and friendship. We want our communities to be places where people are loved and cared for.

The Wise Builders, part of the 92hands movement, was birthed when the team decided to take action to help a struggling neighbor. This neighbor’s house had broken walls and filthy water would enter the house. The family would get sick over and over again. Leaders of 92Hands heard Jesus’s voice telling us to take action and in May 2016 the 92hands team repaired this families home. Today the family remains dry and sickness is less frequent. 

At Wise builders, we are not just doing this to put walls around families, our vision is to demonstrate God’s Love by helping those who struggle. We purpose to share God’s love in practical ways, to encourage people, and to share the hope of the Gospel. 

The House with No Walls

Through our community outreach program we identified a family of 8 living in a house with no walls, their house was washed away by heavy rains and Jessica a single mother of 7 children could not afford to build a new house. For Jessica and her 7 children this was home. Through the wise builders campaign we picked this family to be the first for which to build/renovate a house in our community. Great thanks to the #WiseBuilders from our community and Canada #Arise #92hands

The House with Broken Walls

Before the walls were falling in, rain water was flowing in, the cold was unbearable. Mbabazi and her 7 kids were going through all this because she could not afford to repair her broken house. The wise builders from 92hands.org changed all this on Sunday by renovating her house and providing a warm shelter for Mbabazi and her kids.

Great thanks goes to all of you who came to add a Brick and our partners Arise and Dance on it
