Isles - PUMC Outreach Affordable Housing Project

The Power of Community

Wesleyan tradition teaches us that true congregational vitality lies in the ability of lay members to lead the church. The PUMC Construction team is ready for a changing of the guard. Both Tom Lank and Amy B are moving west this summer and will no longer be available to head up efforts with our construction partnership with Isles.

We are pleased to announce that leadership of the PUMC construction team will be passing to the able team of Lori P, Melissa J and Craig J. They have enthusiastically and faithfully participated in our partnership with Isles since its inception. Please join us in congratulating and thanking them for taking on this leadership role.

If you have questions about joining the Construction Team, or would like more information, please contact outreach(at)princetonumc.org.

Construction Team Milestone! We're happy to report that the diligent efforts of the PUMC Construction Team have reached a major milestone. The first two of the affordable housing units we've been working on have been sold to low-income families and should be occupied within the next couple of months. Congratulations to all who made this possible, including the volunteers who provided construction labor and the members of our faith community who support the team with prayers, words of encouragement, and snacks for our workdays. Our collective efforts are helping to revitalize Trenton, and provide stability for hard-working families.
