Wheelchair Ramp Build, 1 Feb 2014

From Wheelchair Ramp Build 2014-02-01

Today, the carpentry team from Messiah Lutheran Church in Madison, Alabama completed another wheelchair ramp for a very nice lady in Gurley, Alabama.

Our ministry is to provide a means for those are homebound to be able to safely enter and exit their homes. We try to build about one ramp per month.  And we have a lot of fun doing it.  If you would like to help us with this very fun and very rewarding ministry, please contact the Messiah Church Office at (256) 721-0041.

Messiah Lutheran Church builds these ramps in partnership with CASA of Madison County.

CASA (Care Assurance System for the Aging and Homebound) is a non-profit agency located in Huntsville, Alabama that provides services to individuals age 60 and older and to the homebound (wheelchair and bed bound) of all ages.

CASA's mission is to provide needed services to aging/homebound individuals that allow them to remain at home and age in place. Our programs are designed to enable the elderly and homebound to maintain their independence, dignity, health and safety by providing services that specifically address their special physical and emotional needs.

Here are some additional photos from today's build.  Click on photo to see the album.
