Ground broken for Emmaus Family House
December, 2001
Ground was broken on November 8th for the construction of Emmaus Family House in Haverhill. The Essex Association of the Massachusetts Conference has committed to raising $60,000 as a missions fundraiser to support construction of the home, which will provide apartmental living space for 12 families. Several Essex Association churches are also supporting the project individually.
