Volunteer for Divine Do~Overs

Making a Difference Within Your Reach

Divine Do~Overs came about as a desire for busy moms and working women to participate in a mission project despite their inability to leave home or town for an extended period of time The first undertaking of our team is Home Transformation.

As busy women we know that it is easy for a house to "get away from you." But for some families what should be a refuge becomes a prison of failure and embarrassment. These families are in need of some "hands on love." Utilizing the talents of those who can organize, manage teams, shop, decorate, and clean, our ladies have the chance to give a family a Transformed Home. What a blessing to use our gifts and talents and in turn extend the unconditional love of God to a family that is overwhelmed and discouraged.
