The birth of a non-profit housing corporation

The church in Lancaster, PA I attend, East Chestnut Street Mennonite Church has recently developed a non-profit housing corporation called Chestnut Housing Corporation. For months persons have been discussing this idea and with the help of many persons from the church it is a legally recognized non-profit.

If this is not exciting enough, we were able to buy our first property at 639 East Chestnut, Lancaster, PA 17602 which is pictured below.

The Chestnut Housing Corporation is becoming organized and has begun fund-raising. They will partner with Tabor Community Services to provide affordable housing in the Lancaster area. 639 E Chestnut Street will need much renovation and repair to make it a wonderful home. Persons can donate time, prayer, and encouragement. If interested in giving a donation or learning more about the project contact Sue Waterfield, Marlissa Yoder Bontrager or me.
