COVID-19: ADVENT HOUSE MINISTRIES – HELPING THOSE IN NEED STAY SAFE AND WELL

Advent House Ministries Inc. is committed to the health, safety and well-being of our employees and our clients. Our housing support staff are working remotely and supporting their clients with weekly phone check-ins and safe deliveries of needed personal needs and food items. Our outreach staff have continued the essential service of searching for and supporting homeless individuals and families living on the street, working tirelessly to ensure the safety of the most vulnerable. The Weekend Day Shelter is not serving sit-down meals during this time but is distributing sack lunches and other portable takeout meals to those needing food on weekends, including delivery to multiple households in our Permanent Supportive Housing and Rapid Rehousing programs. Our executive director, Susan Cancro, and front office staff, Kim Ebright and Judy Booker, are available at our site during the week to receive phone calls and donations of needed items that can be dropped off at our front door.

All of the above essential services are performed with strict adherence to safety protocols. We take our responsibility to help flatten the curve seriously and are doing everything we can to that aim.

If you need help, please call our office or your case manager. If you wish to make a donation of needed items or funds to support our work, please call our office or email us and we will direct you appropriately. Through this crisis, we pledge to work cooperatively and diligently to keep those we serve safe and well. With all of you, we look forward to the day when this crisis is over and we will find our way forward as a community of peace and hope.
