The dedication of the ECSET
house on Saturday, July 14, 2006 marks the end of a 12-week
journey for Episcopal volunteers. From foundation to
finish, volunteers from the 18 churches that make up the
Episcopal Commission of South East Tennessee contributed
their time, talent and treasure to make the house a reality.
"Helping to build a house is a great faith-building
experience," said one volunteer. "You feel that you are
making a difference in someone's life."
The dedication ceremony also celebrates the new
homeownership of Jerri Booker and her daughter, Kevisha.
During the dedication, Jonathan Shatz, Family Services
Director for Habitat for Humanity presented a new Bible to
the family. With tears in her eyes, Jerri thanked everyone
for making her dream come true.
