The two-day event wrapped up Saturday and Janik moved a lot of the wood on his own, hoisting a lot of lumber over his shoulders. This is the fourth time the seven parishes participated in the build, but this is the first time the St. Francis of Assisi member volunteered his time. More than 200 volunteers from the seven parishes felt the same as they built the framing walls for three houses.
The parishes lending a hand were St. Elizabeth Seton in Orland Hills, St. Francis of Assisi in Orland Park, St. George in Tinley Park, St. Julie Billiart in Tinley Park, St. Michael in Orland Park, St. Stephen Deacon and Martyr in Tinley Park and Incarnation St. Terrence in Palos Hills.CrossRoads is based in Louisville. Project manager Joe Wilson and his wife, Colleen, helped keep the two-day project, which started Friday with prep work, running smoothly.
