Church Builds Homes for the Homeless | Durham News

Holy Trinity Anglican Church is set to transform a vacant lot on Old Lystra Road into a vibrant community hub — featuring two regular homes and up to eight affordable tiny homes for those exiting homelessness, all while keeping their beloved food pantry and garden alive to support UNC Chapel Hill students. This bold, cross-county project, nestled near the Chatham County line, demands zoning approval from both Chapel Hill and Orange County officials, who are weighing it as part of a broader housing strategy. With plans to use well water and septic systems and encourage carpooling, the church aims to build not just shelter, but a sustainable, compassionate future — with a vote looming next month.
