Progress in motion. Each beam and doorway brings us closer to community and belonging.

Dear Sanctuary Family,

Each time we visit the property that will one day become The Sanctuary of North Georgia, we can almost hear it—laughter from homes yet to be built, songs rising from chapel services, and the gentle hum of a community fully alive.

These sounds aren’t just imagination—they are our faith taking shape.

The Sanctuary exists to provide a safe, affordable, and independent community for adults with disabilities—a place where they can live, work, play, and worship together. And we are thrilled to share that we are entirely debt-free.

We continue building this vision step by step, by faith, as the Lord provides.

Each month, we are reminded of the power of partnership. Many of you have chosen to give regularly, and your monthly support allows us to plan ahead, pace construction wisely, and sustain momentum even during the quieter months between fundraising events. Consistent giving truly makes a world of difference, and we are deeply grateful.

If you’ve ever wondered how else you can help, we’re excited to share that The Sanctuary is now prepared to receive gifts of equities and real property. Every gift—no matter the form—goes directly toward building homes and shared spaces where dignity, belonging, and joy will flourish.

Together, we are not just building a campus—we are building hope and a future. Brick by brick and heart by heart, the Lord is establishing this place.

Thank you for believing in this vision and for partnering with us.

Until our next update, please continue praying for wisdom, favor with local partners, and God’s provision in each next step of the build. He is doing something truly special here—and your faith is part of the story.

With gratitude and appreciation for your partnership and generosity,
Hutch & Cindy Matteson
