This is the same idea as Dollywood, right? You can see young Dolly listening to stories from the bible while her momma sews the rags together, etc.

...opening an unorthodox "theme park" at its world headquarters this week...

...The 6.5-acre village is adjacent to Habitat for Humanity's international headquarters in Americus, Georgia...
