Bryan House, Home for Refugees in Aurora
We are beginning a new mission with Rick and Denise Guzman of Bryan House. This is a 5-unit apartment building where refugees families can be reunited and live together, rent free, for one year. The apartments need lots of care and repair to make them ready for the refugee families. There are jobs for all skill levels; from 'carpenter' to 'fix stuff around the house' to 'which one is the screwdriver?' All are welcome! Contact Simone Nickel or Bob Ruff if you would like to help.  sleduc625@yahoo.com  bruff@alltechdecorating.com
