Members of the Fairview Road Church of Christ teamed up with the Boone County Council on Aging to give 78-year-old Mary Sutton’s home a needed makeover. The project lasted from July 24-27 and included new carpets, ceiling tiles, paint, porch supports, landscaping, a couch and some appliances. Kourtney Sebben of the Council on Aging shared her vision for similar projects, and 11-year-old congregation member Justin Hajiceck talked about his experience working on Sutton’s home. The project was completed in time for Sutton, who is a mother of 12, to host a family reunion in her new home.
