What is Family Promise?
Family Promise is a unique charity that Peace Lutheran is happy to be part of organizing. There are a selected number of homeless families accepted into this 9-week program. These are usually single parent families; the parent usually has a job, and most are waiting for approved housing.
This nine-week time is to teach budgeting skills, parenting skills and life skills to families. There is a small core (two full time people) of employees who run the day to day ministry.
Churches in the area provide the manpower in the evenings and provide breakfast foods; and provide a prepared supper. Our week is coming up so, think about the role you can play in preparing these families to return to the community.
