Past Projects
Since launching in 2023, Covered by Christ has served many families, and churches. Through our local relationships and resources we have saved or provided over $146,000 toward specific projects. So far we have helped: teachers, an assistant principle, a nurse, church servants, a pastor and a church.
We love serving those who serve.
Teachers
Earl and Becca Hill are both teachers, living with their two children. They were told by insurance that they must get a new roof, or they would be dropped. The cost of the project was over $30,000. We worked with our construction partners and were able to provide the roof at no cost to the Hills! When we let them know that the cost was "covered by Christ," Becca said, "I feel a burden lifted off our shoulders."
See Matthew 11:29-30
Church Servants
This family has faithfully served at the local church. She with the children's program and he as a deacon. They are a beloved family of the church and the community. A cancer diagnosis set them back with medical bills and life began to pile up. Their faith in God persevered and Christ showed his love through the action of a contractor and the people of the church.
Church,
Winter Park
New Fellowship Church is a small church in Winter Park, FL that was in desperate need of a new roof. However, the expense was too great for the congregation.
Covered by Christ found a contractor to do the job for less than cost and helped raise 85% of the price to get the job done. The congregation came together to raise the rest.
Charcoal Shingle
Family in Need
The Sioson family was living life as usual until it all changed. The father, Joel, had a major medical issues that almost took his life. Praise to God that he survived, but he had a long road to recovery. It would be a while before he could work again.
Almost one year later, the family received an email from their insurance company stating they needed a new roof within 30 days or they would be dropped. This was an emotional and financial blow they were not expecting, especially after the year they had.
Covered by Christ helped find a contractor to do the job at cost and got it done in less than 30 days. We also helped raise a portion of the funds the family needed.
Residential Re-roof with shingles
Nurse tech in need
A single mother of 3 kids found herself living in a car, then living in a motel and finally was able to get a small place of their own with the help of a relative. When they moved in they discovered the kitchen pipes were leaking, the walls behind the counters were wet and the countertop caved in. The appliances were old and not functional.
Through one of our serving partners we were able to connect with the family and bring in the resources to do a full kitchen renovation. We had a mold report completed, gutted the kitchen and with the help of some great partners provide a new cabinets, new countertop, sink, and all new appliances for the family.
ASSISTANT PRINCIPLE AND HEALTH CHALLENGES
A local Assistant Principle and his wife discovered that her health issues and possibly their sons' health issues were tied to the air quality in their home. We were contacted through her women's bible study group to see if we can help. We jumped at the God-given opportunity to help any way we could. The first thing we did is brought in an air quality testing service that inspected the entire home. They discovered that the major issue in the house was with the carpet that covered most of the house. We found our mission!
We were blessed to meet the owners of Big Bob's Flooring in Winter Garden who agreed to help with the project. We were able to change the carpet to solid floors in a short amount of time.
The first day they walked in the door she told us, "I immediately felt a difference walking in, and although I've only been here for a few hours, there is a noticeable difference in how I feel." She went on to say that both of their boys are getting better as well.
All praise to God!!
Local Pastor and Family
"Words cannot express how grateful we are for you! You are apart of our story now."
Pastor Michael A.
Pastor Mike A. leads a growing church in Orlando, Florida. Pastor Mike and his wife, Lucy, moved into their new home and quickly realized that the old, smelly carpet is going to cause significant health issues for two of their kids who have asthma. We were connected through a friend with the National Christian Foundation, and we knew something had to be done quickly before they moved in. Since we had just done a flooring project we knew we could call our friends and mission partners, Big Bobs Flooring in Winter Garden. We were able to get the old floors out and new, healthy floors installed in two weeks time. Now, Mike and Lucy are getting their home ready for their family to live healthy lives, and to host lots of parties for their congregation.
