RESURRECTION HOUSE
Resurrection House- Emergency Shelter and Short Stay.
This is a multi-purpose project consisting of a temporary shelter and a longer-term program providing the homeless and those at risk with an opportunity to improve their way of life. We provide a safe, secure environment, supervised meals, toiletries and laundry facilities for all who stay. Because there is a requirement of community service attached to residence at Resurrection House, there is less transient traffic. There is a resident population of people making an effort to change their lives for the better. We encourage residents after their 3 months stay to continue into the program at Life Skills Institute, a long-term program of Resurrection House. The Resurrection House is located at 701 W Colorado Ave and is now located in the Life Skills Institute building.
Success Stories
RICHARD SMITH
Rick came to Resurrection House in August 2020 beat up and bruised. At that moment he realized that the alcohol and bad company he was around was not the life God wanted him to live. He knew that he had to make a change for the better. Soon after being at the Resurrection House, Rick decided to take the next step by joining the Life Skills Institute (LSI) program. During his stay at LSI Rick grew closer to God and was baptized into what is now his home church, Bible Baptist Church. Rick learned a lot of valuable tools through LSI’s financial classes and case management and has now graduated the program and is living on his own in an apartment in Chickasha. Ricks advice to our residents in the LSI program is that you can get through it, but you have to want it. Don’t give up and don’t forget to let God guide your path. Rick we are so blessed to have you as a friend and look forward to seeing where God directs your path.
ADAM STEPHENSON
Adam came to the Resurrection House from a hospital due to being prepared to take his life. Upon arrival, he was nervous and scared but God had him right where he wanted him to be. Adam then became employed and started in the Life Skills Institute program. One year later Adam is very happy, at a place of his own and now one of our graduates of our program.
