Habitat for Humanity Home Follow Up - Progress on Adam and Stephanie Home in Muskegon

We started back in the Spring.  We introduced you to Adam Bayne and Stephanie Anderson who were looking to make their situation a little better and through the work of Habitat for Humanity, their dream is coming true.  Well, since our last visit, a lot of work has gone on so we figured we'd pop in again to catch you up on where the progress is...and it's pretty exciting.





As you may recall, Habitat for Humanity is a program that is here in Muskegon but also operates nationally and globally to help people establish themselves as home owners and while they do that, they are given the tools it takes to make home ownership a success.  It's not a "free house" by any stretch of the imagination.  There are hours of sweat equity that go in to every single home.  Work, financial literacy classes, home ownership counselling, and some income requirements all factor in to the project.  The end goal is simple.  Habitat for Humanity brings people together to build homes, communities and hope.  It's a pretty remarkable mission.

Adam and Stephanie have put the time in, they continue to do so as the work goes on at their house on Grand Street in Muskegon.  Their current residence is a little outdated and their growing family is in need of a little bigger space and new start.  I will say that I have known them for a while, and to have watched their journey has been a remarkable thing.  To see the joy continue to build and the anticipation grow...well, this Spring can't get here soon enough to see the completed home and the joy of them moving in.



For now, we met up to take a glance at the construction progress and give you a quick update, take a listen...over the generator and pounding...you'll hear too... great things are happening in Muskegon for Adam and Stephanie.

I am so happy for this couple.  As you've seen, the house is going up so are the lives of Adam, Stephanie and their daughter Jaimi who just happened to be busy with pre-school at the time we recorded.  Amazing things are happening in Muskegon, amazing things happening for good people and that makes me feel very good about our future.  If you'd like to know more about Habitat for Humanity in Muskegon, click on the photo below for more information.
