More than a House

For a family struggling to make ends meet, finding safe and affordable housing can feel out of reach. High rents can consume a large portion of a family's income, leaving little room to save, plan, or move forward.

Lincoln Village Ministry provides another option.

We purchase and restore historic homes in the Lincoln community and offer them to working families at affordable rents. But housing is only the beginning. Through supportive relationships, practical resources, and a community of neighbors, families have the opportunity to experience stability while preparing for what comes next.

From Renovation to Restoration

Historic homes in the Lincoln community have been given new life, creating safe places for families to build their own futures.

Since 2002, Lincoln Village Ministry has purchased and renovated more than 70 homes in the Lincoln Mill area. By restoring these properties, we are not only preserving pieces of our community's history but creating places where families can find stability, build relationships, and pursue a different future.

Renovation restores a house. Restoration can change a life.
