Family Promise is a community-based approach to solving homelessness, engaging both the local community as well as faith-based organizations, to effectively remedy family homelessness.  Families in the program receive a full complement of resources, support, and training as they work towards their own stability and self-reliance.

Family Promise at RLC

RLC is a host church for this non-profit, that cares for local homeless families with minor aged children in our neighborhoods. There are over 3,000 homeless children who have been reported in our local public schools alone. Once a quarter we donate money or gift cards for groceries and gas for up to 4 families for the week. If you would like to become a volunteer and help with either, food prep or serving meals, playing games, helping with homework or staying overnight with families please contact Debra at Office@ResurrectionLutheranChurch.org  There is a mandatory two-hour training for all volunteers.

If you would like to donate items or money please contact www.familypromiseosb.org

The families always enjoy receiving personal cards/love notes from us during our Host Week, plus homemade cookies/baked goods. They also can use Size 6 diapers and juice boxes and both sweet and savory snack packs for the children.
