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
All major credit/debit cards and PayPal accepted.

– Text GIVEHOM to 44321

– Mail a check to PO Box 376, Livingston, TX, 77351
Must be postmarked by 12/31/19.

– Turn in a donation to an HOM Board Member

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.

Clean up day was a great success and the House of Mary property looks fantastic! Thank you so much to each and every person that braved the chilly weather (and mud) to come out and help. We swept, pressure washed, filled a dumpster with construction debris, landscaped around the sign, planted rose bushes, and much more! Along with clean up tasks, we also relocated some friendly snakes, set a mouse free, and disrupted a skunk. Thank you again to all who came out. You are such a blessing to HOM and we enjoyed working alongside you all today. You can see a few pictures from Clean Up Day in the slideshow below!

Building update - supplies for running utilities will be delivered next week! Installation will begin soon after! During that time, Impact Fire will begin the installation of our indoor sprinkler system. As soon as the utilities are finished, sprinkler system is finished and checked we will begin the final steps of completing the house. With the finishing touches just around the corner, our land and house are in need of some tidying up. 
​So...
​​We will be having a House of Mary Property Clean Up Day on November 2nd from 8 am to noon. We will be cleaning up the inside and outside of the house - power washing the house, picking up random boards and trash, possibly laying sod, mowing the lot, landscaping the sign, sweeping the building, possibly landscaping the grounds, cleaning the windows, and much much more. We need all the help we can get so that the final touches can be done to the house and we can OPEN THE DOORS to the first maternity home in Polk County!! So please add this date to your calendar and bring your family to help out at this event! We will have breakfast for you!
