Divine Restoration, or DR, is a religious renovation television series. Created by Canada's VisionTV, instead of renovating homes like most shows, it renovates houses of worship. Hosted by Jim Codrington and Catherine Burdon, the series actually taps into the talents of the congregation. Instead of hiring electricians, plumbers, carpenters, architects, etc., DR finds people of relevant professions to donate their time to lead the rest of the parish's members in the work. The series aims to not discriminate against particular faiths, representing as many denominations as possible. They have renovated in locations as distant from each other as Toronto, Halifax, Winnipeg, Ottawa, Montreal, New York, Montgomery, Orlando, Atlanta, New Orleans, Chicago and Milwaukee.
