Two meetings were held to finalize area layout and building design for SHEC Housing Project Phase 3. SHEC partnered with TAO-Pilipinas, a women-led, non-stock, non-profit, non-government organization of professionals in the field of architecture, planning, and engineering, providing technical assistance to the urban poor. Truly, empowered women are primary Kingdom workers, like the active women disciples of Jesus.
