Thank you –

We wanted to take a moment to express our sincerest thanks to each person or group that made a donation to House of Mary in honor of D'Ann. Because of your generosity, the entire House of Mary kitchen has been funded. From cabinets and appliances to countertops and tile backsplash. D'Ann loved to host her friends and family in her own home. She had such a gift of hospitality and it seemed only fitting to allocate donations made in her honor to this part of the house. 

In addition to your generous donations, every message, comment, note, and prayer has meant the world to us. We truly appreciate the kindness our community has shown over the last month. Thank you.

House Update –

There has been a lot of exciting progress made on the house over the last couple of months! When D'Ann found out her cancer had returned she was adamant that we not let her diagnosis or prognosis slow down the house build one bit. So we are continuing to move forward! Here are a few things that have been happening recently:

- Fire sprinkler system completed and tested
- Insulation
- Sheetrock installed, taped, and floated
- Texture sprayed on ceiling and walls
- Interior doors installed
- Interior trim completed
- Closet shelving and rods installed
- Ceiling and walls painted
- Production on all cabinetry started 

We also recently had an online "Fund a Need" event where are large portion of build related items were purchased for the house! Bathroom vent fans and hardware, door knobs, and almost half of the main flooring for the house (you can click HERE to help cover the cost of the remaining boxes of flooring).

Moving forward is definitely bitter-sweet, but we are hopeful for the future. As always, thank you for your continued support.

Our dear friend, sister, and HOM board member D’Ann went to be with Jesus. There are no words to explain the depth of our sadness here on earth. Likewise, there are no words to explain the joy we know she has now being fully restored and with our Savior. Please be in prayer for her sweet family.

Dear House of Mary Supporters,

Due to the ever changing situation regarding COVID-19 and the recent announcement that First Baptist Church will be suspending activities for the coming week, Ladies Tea will be postponed and rescheduled for a later date. We will announce a new date as soon as we are able via email, social media, and our website.

While we are saddened by the situation, we know the Lord is in control and we can rest in the fact that He will work everything out for His good.

Sincerely,

House of Mary Board
​

It's almost time for our favorite event of the year House of Mary's Ladies Tea.  We love how this event brings multigenerational women together for a time of fun, fellowship, and of course food.  This year's speaker is Brittany Price Brooker and we are excited to hear what she has to share.  

Because of your generous support and prayers, 2019 was an amazing year of progress! This year we were able to begin construction on the first House of Mary maternity home at 112 New Hope Drive in Livingston, TX. We are happy to report that the house is now completely dried in! The next steps are finishing out the interior with flooring, cabinets, fixtures, paint, appliances, and everything else that will transform it from a house to a home.

As the year comes to a close, we ask that you would consider making a final tax-deductible donation to House of Mary for 2019. This will ensure funds to complete the house and continue to grow savings for our upcoming operating expenses. House of Mary is funded solely by our supporters and does not qualify for government grants, as we are considered a religious ministry. Your continued support is vital.

There are multiple ways to give:

– Give online by clicking on the "Donate" tab above

Thank you for considering a year-end gift to House of Mary. We are excited to see what He has planned! May the Lord bless you greatly in the upcoming new year.
