What is Greenhouse?
A few summers ago, John Clifford and I flew out to the West Coast to spend a few days with a ministry that worked with the homeless population in Los Angeles.
Our First Baptism: Mario
Anyone else need a break from the negative news and social media? Here’s an inspiring story full of hope about one man’s life transformation.
New Chester Community Partnership
Greenhouse Project is excited to announce the official start of a community collaboration with Paramount Recovery House, and, in only a way God could orchestrate, they are just two doors down from us!
NO LONGER HOMELESS, CW GOES HOME
Our article “The Underpass,” posted in January 2019, shares part of my journey with a man named CW. We met six years ago while I was on staff at Cityteam and CW entered our homeless shelter, and later, the recovery program.
VISIT, SERVE, LOVE
At Greenhouse, one of our core values is community. This means we make long-term commitments to local communities and the people that reside in them.
BASKETBALL, KIDS, AND POLICE
Over these past few months we have been noticing a buzz in our neighborhood. It's getting warmer and more people are out and about.
IT'S HAPPENING!
This summer, we have some exciting news to share. Starting July 1st, 2020, Emily and I will transition to be full-time staff with GHP.
Loss in Our Community
In one day, everything can change. June 7th started off as an ordinary day. Sundays are usually very long days for me.
What can we do?
These past few months have left me feeling completely helpless. Between the COVID-19 pandemic and witnessing George Flyod's horrific death, I am beginning to wonder if I can make a difference at all.
One Life Changed
When I met Sheila about 10 years ago, we quickly became friends. Shelia is a warm, kind, compassionate person who absolutely loves God. She is also a single mom, raising 10 children and her grandchildren.
NEW WOMEN'S ADDICTION SUPPORT!!
At the Greenhouse Project, we are on a mission to help people grow in difficult places. What that difficult place looks like varies from person to person. One individual’s difficult place might be a physical address or zip code, while another’s could be addiction.
Project MENTOR: Help the Next Person
March 7th, 2020 marked 13 years of freedom from drug addiction through the Power of Jesus Christ. My life changed in a jail cell in 2006, while I was at the lowest point in my life.
Engaging Detours
Have you ever experienced God’s ability to take the simplest of events and tie them together in such a way that shows the power of His love? Where you are just going about what you believe to be your own plans and God reveals ways to use you to extend His love to others? This happened to my family and I recently.
Hope in the Storm
In the midst of chaos, we wanted to share a few updates with our life in Chester and with the ministry. My family and I are still here in Chester, and our house is our ministry.
The Underpass
Despite his desire, I learned last year after starting a conversation with him on Facebook Messenger that he had been living under the overpass of a bridge for more than two years. In fact, this winter would be his third.
