Sleep in Heavenly Peace hosted its second bed building event Saturday where volunteers came together to build 30 bed frames that will go to local families in need. The organization currently has over 40 on the list to receive beds. Along with the frames, the families will receive donated mattresses and bedding. Volunteers will come in to finish putting the frames together and put the beds together.

Sheri Payne put the head and foot of the beds in a vinegar mixture to finish and stain the wood before they get branded.
Ben Payne brands the head and foot of the beds with the Sleep in Heavenly Peace logo.
