Before the drug trade moved in, the abandoned building at Sheridan and Clearfield Streets in the heart of a troubled North Philadelphia neighborhood housed a grocery store and apartments.
Juan Marrero and Ron Muse watched its evolution as they experienced their own: from little boys, to teens involved with drugs, to pastors.
In a move to reclaim the building, Marrero and Muse have teamed up to open a church, and have called on an aptly named volunteer group to help.
Kingdom Builders Construction, a program of the Mennonite Central Committee - one of the denomination's mission divisions - has enlisted a corps of volunteer youth to help transform what was once a drug house into a sanctuary.
Based in Philadelphia, Kingdom Builders Construction is a business with a charitable calling that offers free work for churches and low-income residents who cannot afford renovations and repair.
The entity shares its name with a similar group affiliated with the American Baptist Churches USA in Valley Forge. That Kingdom Builders is a program of the American Baptist Men of Pennsylvania and Delaware that focuses on disaster relief and free repairs to churches in need.
Both groups believe they are fulfilling a mission.
"Churches get the runaround or get screwed over by contractors, or they can't afford the work," said Daniel Umstead, 28, the Philadelphia group's director. "We are able to utilize the Mennonite community to do it."

MIRI: Holy Trinity Anglican Church new building project commenced construction after an earth-breaking ceremony at the site yesterday.
The churchs Building committee chairman Pemanca Wilson Siang said the project is scheduled for completion in nine months.
The projects estimated cost is RM1.58 million and so far we have collected some RM700,000 in fund from charity and the government, he said at the ceremony attended by more than 100 peopel in Lambir.
Also present at the earth-breaking ceremony was Lambir assemblyman Ripin Lamat and Archbishop of the Anglican Province of Southeast Asia the Most Rev Datuk Bolly Lapok.
Moreover, Wilson said the new church building project needs to secure another RM700,000 in balance.
He added that initial cost of church construction was RM600,000 but due to more expensive materials, cost has increased including up-to-date facilities to be installed.
The new church capacity is around 500 congregates at one session, compared to currently 200.
Since the past two years, the church committee has been running around raising fund for the construction.
We received several grant allocations from the government through ministers and peoples representatives as well as keen individuals, he said.

SIDMAN The members of Mount Olive United Methodist Church mark their faith by using a tape measure.
The mission team of the Sidman area church uses tools such as tape measures to complete construction and repair projects to improve life for people in need and to help nonprofit organizations.
Just a month ago, the team finished its latest project, a ramp for a Sidman area womanwho uses a walker and wheelchair to get around.
Mission team leader Deborah Sedlmeyer said the group also provides support for people in need in other ways.
In addition to funding and completing construction and repair jobs around the home, the team delivers soup to people in need and provides financial support during crises.
In some cases, the team requests that some of the money be repaid to help the person become responsible and so the money can be used to help others, she said.
Our mission team is fortunate to have such a supportive church body to financially allow us to do so much good for so many others and to have so many talents in the church to complete the work, Sedlmeyer said. Its a group effort.
She said everyone is called by the Lord to serve others.
And when you do, it is a gift to yourself, she said.
Ken Turgeon, construction project leader, said the mission team has been doing construction work for about four years. The first project was turning a gymnasium into housing for missionaries in a depressed area of Kentucky.

FINAL SERVICE: The Rev Dawn Daunauda, of St Andrews Presbyterian Church, leads a farewell of the Seddon church building, which is to be demolished because of earthquake damage.
The St Andrew's Presbyterian Church congregation in Seddon has said its last goodbye to a church it has worshipped in for the past six decades.
The church building in Richmond St is to be demolished because of earthquake damage.
Yesterday, about 140 people gathered for the final service at the 59-year-old church.
The Rev David Coster, who was ordained at the church in 1977, led the service with its current minister, the Rev Dawn Daunauda, who announced its decommission.
A decision was made in April to bring the church down, after earthquakes in July and August last year made it unsafe for use.
Coster and Daunauda said it was a sad day but they were happy to see the building go and the safety of their congregation preserved.
"I look at it and there's a deep ache in my heart . . . I love being here but I wish I was here for another reason," Coster said. "As a church we have to keep our buildings at the same safety standard as anything else, and this is a risk site . . . it needs to come down."

Patrick Powers held up three or four carrots he'd just pulled out of the soil. Before he started gardening, numerous people or things might have touched those carrots before they reached his mouth: farmers, farmworkers, pesticides, food handlers, grocers all part of a system of efficient food-processing that he had some familiarity with working in the restaurant industry for 35 years.
Now, it's straight from the ground to his plate, a feeling he says he can't describe.
"It's fun being a farmer," he said.
Patrick rents a plot for $40 a year at Redeemer's Field, a year-old community garden on land owned by the Lutheran Church of Our Redeemer in Sacramento, Calif.
The project, which broke ground in March of last year, transformed an empty church lot into a source of healthful and affordable food for community members.
The value of a community garden is clear, said Bill Maynard, who has helped build community gardens around Sacramento for 20 years and works as the community garden coordinator for Sacramento's Department of Parks and Recreation.
"It's about bringing the community in and showing they have worth," he said. Maynard advised the church throughout the construction process, from planning to financing and connecting the church with volunteers.
At Redeemer's Field, there are 20 occupied beds growing anything and everything, from bulbous watermelon and heirloom tomatoes to cinnamon basil and zucchini squash. Red grapevines hug one side of a bordering chain link fence, and a line of burgeoning fruit trees welcomes visitors near the entrance gate, open at all hours of the day. At the center lies a bed of proud sunflowers raised by a member who lives in an apartment across the street.
The garden's construction required many hands, including non-church members, neighbors and community service organizations such as AmeriCorps to till the soil, pave walkways and build wooden box plots. With much of the work done, the project is still expanding: A picnic bench area is planned to give visitors a proper place to sit.
The farm-to-fork movement isn't central to the mission of the church, which has held services at the site for 60 years, said Lisa Mulz, a member of the congregation who helped build the garden.
