The Vision Homes are almost finished!  Armando Ambriz just finished painting both houses and John Singleton is getting ready to install the tile!  There are too many names too mention, but please know these homes are built through a wonderful collaboration of people dedicated to helping others and spreading Gods love.  We are hoping to be finished by mid June, and are in the process of planning an appreciation dinner.  We want everyone to attend and help us thank all who helped make these homes a reality.  Coweta is a wonderful community to live in.  We are a community joining together to lend a helping to our neighbors in need!  Drive by 420 and 416 North Bixby Street and see what we have accomplished.
