I received a note this week that gets to the heart of Extreme Community Makeover, beyond the tangible help volunteers provide on a project...
"Thank you for the work done on my house.....but this went much further than just a few hours spent helping me. It motivated me not only to attack further projects around the house but other houses also on my street have vastly improved since then. It also brought our neighbors together and I got to meet several people that I never had a chance to meet before this project."
To all of you who have given your time to volunteer, your money to donate, and your enthusiasm to share with others - THANK YOU! Thank you for making these types of experiences possible for our Denver neighbors as together we impact our communities "one block at a time"!

Church Partner: Hillside Church
| Hillside Church started meeting in the summer of 2005 with about 15 families, but now about 90 families consider Hillside their church community. They are an independent church plant from Grace Chapel in Englewood. Their vision is to be people passionately living life with God. Their mission as a church is to encourage Christ-centered transformation by the Spirit. Hillside Church has been involved with ECM since 2009 and always brings out a great group of volunteers, including many families who serve together to make an impact here in Denver!
