I-HELP (Homeless Emergency Lodging Program)
Volunteers help provide a Friday dinner and Saturday breakfast two weekends per month to our guests. We provide shelter, showers, meals, and a listening ear. While meals are important, we also see and recognize our guests as our brothers and sisters, as we are called to do. Won’t you please help us to see and recognize people who are often-times invisible in society by breaking bread and being a listening presence?
The 2023 I-Help Meal Sign Up is now available for those who would like to provide an evening meal or breakfast items for our unhoused guests in the coming year. To see or sign up for the remaining dates in the 2023 I-Help Schedule Google Sheet, please contact one of the ministry leads so they can add your email to the “Share” list. Donations of bedsheets, towels, underwear, and shower products are always welcome.
Contact Michael Ketcham at or 602-768-9623.
