Habitat for Humanity of Goldsboro-Wayne is scheduled to hold a Blessing of the Build ceremony on Monday, Jan. 17, to kick off its Lenoir County Build 2022 project. The ceremony, which should only last about 15 minutes, will begin at 10AM and will be at the Habitat job site at 925 McCaskill Dr., Kinston.

Beatrice Lane didn’t think she had much of a chance of being approved for Habitat homeownership, but the fact that she even had the opportunity to apply was already a step in the right direction.
