The dedication was held on December 15, 2001 at the Friendly Temple Church at the corner of Burd and Martin Luther King.
The dedication was for several houses completed near the end of 2001.
After the combined service our group gathered at the house for our own ceremony, with a blessing of the home by Rev. Dan Handschy of Advent, Crestwood.
