 "That's What Neighbors Do" is a sequel video to   "People Matter Most".  It shows that being   neighborly isn't just a "nice" idea.  It's what helps   diverse families survive the hardships of 2020.     New friendships thrive, and helping each other   becomes much more obvious.  All on College St. in   Lewiston, Maine can see that's what neighbors do.

    Hope House has been honored to host teams coming to      help us love our Lewiston neighbors. Teams of students        from Boston, from Northeastern University as well as            Wellesley College, gave time during their 2023 spring          breaks to volunteer at our Family Support Center.  We          love the videos below made by one of the team's                  members, Swapna Palavesa Kannan.  It well                        reflects the fun, energy, and compassion that teams              bring to our struggling neighborhood.   

Hope House was honored to welcome Maine's Speaker of the House Rachel Talbot Ross, Senator Peggy Rotundo, & State Representative Margaret Craven to a recent Market Day (video to the right).  They intently listened to our neighborhood share on housing challenges and their compassion encouraged the 70 families.
 ​ Here's a link to an inspiring        story of one of our center's        families.  Pray for God to          continue working miracles on    behalf of our brave new            neighbors.
