When a tornado hit Bowling Green, Kentucky, in 2021, 500 homes, 100 businesses, and 17 lives were lost. Work still continues to restore the community. Arnold and I (both from the Liberty Team of Thrivent) are spending a few days in this area building houses with Habitat for Humanity. It's hard but gratifying work, and I'm thankful to be a part of it. Curious about the work of the Habitat & Thrivent Partnership, or wondering how you can help?
