Building homes for those in need – District 117

Habitat for Humanity reached out to the Knights of Columbus for help in building a home for the Townsend family in Sherman, TX on May 18th.

Knights from across District 117 pulled together as a team and were able to get the trusses up and installed on the house by midday. This is one of the bigger jobs to accomplish in building a house and the family was extremely appreciative to those Knights that served that day. They are one step closer to moving into a new home.

A job well done Brother Knights – Vivat Jesus!
