Transitional Home

WHO ARE WE?
The Transitional Housing Ministry is a program designed to help build a bridge from the resolutions to change that people make while in prison and the actual implementation of a new lifestyle once on the outside.
It is administered by Mission For All Nations a bilingual, non-denominational Christian Ministry.

WHAT DO WE DO?
Level One

This ministry assists people on two levels.

One level is as a place for people coming out of prison to find the items needed to get restarted on the outside such as:food, clothes, personal items and referrals for jobs and other assistance. This is available to anyone on a one time basis simply by completing a request for assistance form.

Level Two

The second level of the Transitional Housing Ministry is as a furnished transitional home for those who need a place to stay in a positive Christian environment while they adjust to a lifestyle very different from their lives before entering prison.

Currently facilities are only available for three women.

WHAT IS THE TRANSITIONAL HOUSE
The Transitional Housing program provides a furnished home where women who want to commit themselves to a Christian lifestyle can stay for as long as needed to help them adjust to freedom as a new creation in Christ Jesus. Each transitional home resident is expected to seek employment to pay for her rent and utilities or work as a volunteer at least 15 hours per week until employment is found. She is responsible to cook her own meals, do her own laundry, keep her bedroom and common areas clean and pay for miscellaneous personal expenses. Once employment is obtained, residents are expected to contribute $300.00 per month towards rent and utilities. They will pay for personal toll calls separately as well as a percentage for the use of the local phone. In return, each resident who is accepted into the program and signs the agreement to abide by the rules, will have her own furnished bedroom in a furnished three bedroom apartment as well as the items listed in level one.

Call (402) 733-2077 for more information.

Scripture Reference:


Matthew 25:34-40

Then shall the King say unto them on his right hand, Come, ye blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world: For I was an hungred, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in: Naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in prison, and ye came unto me. Then shall the righteous answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, and fed thee? or thirsty, and gave thee drink? When saw we thee a stranger, and took thee in? or naked, and clothed thee? Or when saw we thee sick, or in prison, and came unto thee? And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me. KJV

 

 

"For I was hungry, and you gave me meat: I was thirsty, and you gave me drink:

Naked, and you clothed me." Matthew 25:35.
