A Christian ministry calling churches to action
| Partnering with churches helps Habitat for Humanity fulfill our mission to demonstrate the love and teachings of Jesus Christ. Churches provide essential prayer support and invaluable resources that help serve families in need of housing. Operation Home Delivery (pdf) invites churches to respond to Hurricane Katrina. |  |

Churches put faith into action to help end poverty housing
Habitat for Humanity is about tearing down walls and building bridges. It is about bringing hope and transforming lives. It is about serving God by serving others.
The vision of Habitat is that all people will have a decent place in which to live. Trust in God propels this movement forward and helps bring hope into the lives of homeowners, volunteers-and sometimes even bystanders.
Learn more about Habitat as a Christian ministry.
Benefits of church partnerships
Habitat for Humanity benefits from all the contributions that churches make to this ministry. The prayer, financial and volunteer support that churches provide is the backbone of Habitat’s work. The partnership works both ways, however. Read what pastors have to say about how Habitat for Humanity benefits the church.
What can my church do?
Most importantly, every church can pray for the work of Habitat for Humanity around the world. Churches support the ministry of Habitat in a number of other ways and at a variety of levels. Find out more about church partnership opportunities, including volunteering, fund raising and serving on committees.
How do we get started?
Habitat for Humanity operates through local organizations in communities around the world. Many Habitat groups organize specific church-sponsored builds or create events that focus on church partnerships. Campaigns such as an Apostle’s Build (a partnership of 12 churches based on the biblical concept of the 12 apostles in ministry with Jesus) give churches a terrific opportunity to get a taste of Habitat.
