-----------------------------
The Dwelling Place is a compassion-centered ministry dedicated to giving the homeless and those at risk of homelessness companionship and hope through Christ-like love. Our Day Center will be a safe, judgement-free culture grounded in grace, compassion and respect for everybody. Its hospitable environment will allow connections and relationships to develop.
​
Friendship is a valued and rewarding part of life. Through friendships we are provided a sense of belonging and purpose. Friendship boosts our happiness, improves our self-worth, and assists with coping with the difficult times of life. At the Day Center we will offer friendship to all who walk through our door.
From friendships trust is cultivated.
And once trust is established, we can work together for better days.
