Faith Relations

“We always say in Habitat for Humanity that we are doing a lot more than just building houses. We are seeking to be a part of building God’s kingdom on earth. We are seeking to build relationships and we are challenging people to reach out and help others as others have reached out to help them.”
— From “Building the Kingdom of God,” by Millard Fuller in Kingdom Building, page 14.

At Loudoun Habitat for Humanity we view Faith Relations as building relationships.  We welcome the participation of people of all faiths, and no faith, as we strive to fund and build homes in Loudoun County for families in need.

Habitat for Humanity is a Christian housing ministry that relies greatly on the support of the faith community. Churches and religious communities have long been the backbone of Habitat for Humanity, traditionally serving as the most long-term and reliable partners. At the same time, many religious communities have discovered that their involvement with Habitat has blessed them in many ways. While Habitat is a decidedly Christian ministry, we welcome and are grateful for the support of people of all faiths, and of no faith, who will join us in our efforts to eliminate poverty housing.
