Our Purpose

Who we are, our mission, and why everything we offer is free.

Who We Are

Friendship House is a Christian non-denominational charity organization.

We are not government or church run; instead, we operate under the direction of God.

Ours doors first opened in 1997.

We rely on donations (monetary, food, clothing, etc.) and volunteers to keep our doors open.

We operate from Monday through Friday.

Our Mission Statement

Friendship House is committed to:

  • building relationships that will meet the physical, emotional and spiritual needs of people;
  • sharing and showing God’s unconditional love within a warm and caring environment by our actions and through our acceptance of all people.

“For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat,
I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink,
I was a stranger and you invited me in,
I needed clothes and you clothed me,
I was sick and you looked after me,
I was in prison and you came to visit me.”

Matthew 25:35,36

As ambassadors of Jesus Christ, we follow His example to the best of our ability.

All our services are FREE.
