shepherds_house_ministries

Shepherd’s House Ministries’ Redmond Center, an essential resource for individuals facing homelessness and hardship, will celebrate its first anniversary this Friday, November 15th. Since opening partially on November 15, 2023, as an overnight shelter offering breakfast and dinner, the Redmond Center expanded its services on February 5, 2024, becoming a 24/7 facility providing comprehensive support, including day services, three meals daily, case management, life skills classes, and an internship program for individuals in long-term recovery.

The impact of the Redmond Center over the past year speaks to its vital role within the community. In collaboration with other service providers, the Redmond Center has offered a foundation of safety and stability, helping guests move toward self-sufficiency and new opportunities. Key metrics showcase the Center’s influence:

-Total Transitions in 2024 YTD: 93 (98 since November 15, 2023)

-Unique Individuals Served in 2024 YTD: 384 (393 since November 15, 2023)

-Unique Individuals in Case Management 2024 YTD: 189

Reflecting on the center’s journey from partial to full operation, Shepherd’s House Ministries is grateful for the partnerships and community support enabling its services to evolve and grow. By offering shelter, meals, and resources in tandem with local organizations, the Redmond Center ensures each guest receives tailored support, fostering an environment where individuals can regain control of their lives and plan for a hopeful future.

“We are honored to celebrate one year of service in Redmond and grateful to God and the community support that has made this milestone possible,” said Curt Floski, Executive Director of Shepherd’s House Ministries. “Through collaboration and dedication, we’ve seen real transformation of lives by offering safety, stability, spiritual support and resources to people when they need them most. We look forward to continuing to build on this foundation in our second year.”

The public is invited to Shepherd’s House Ministries on Friday, November 15th, for an anniversary event to learn more about the Redmond Center’s impact and celebrate this milestone. This is an opportunity to hear firsthand about the Redmond Center’s work and the lives it has changed through its services.
