Good Samaritan Mission: Jericho's new Gospel rescue ministry
Jericho Partnership has inaugurated an in-depth, long-term transitional program based on the successful Gospel rescue mission model to move homeless and other at-risk men off Danbury’s streets and into jobs and a self-sufficient life.
Called the Good Samaritan Mission, the Christ-centered effort includes shelter for up to 16 men in eight two-man rooms with private bathrooms, and transitional programs including recovery from addictions, job training and employment and coaching.
To achieve this goal we need volunteers, and lots of them to help in the areas of:
- Breakfast and Lunch servers
- Welcome Center Greeters
- Hospitality volunteers
- Facility assistants
- Overnight Shelter Volunteers (only males)

Description
Our History
Jericho Partnership grew out of a 1999 project when several hundred volunteers from urban and suburban Danbury, Conn., congregations began renovating a derelict, burned-out 1800s downtown factory. The result is Jericho House, the home of Cambodian New Life Evangelical Church and several independent Christ-centered ministires for at-risk adults.
As the five-year project progressed, a vision emerged for a Christian charitable organization that would mobilize Christ-centered word-and-deed ministries and congregations into a collaborative serving the city's at-risk communities. Jericho Partnership was formed, providng an ongoing demonstration of living uncompromisingly for the glory of God.
Since then Jericho has become a 501(c)3 cross-cultural organization providing financial, volunteer, facility and staff support to 10 autonomous ministries in Danbury, and collaborates with more than 20 urban and suburban congregations for year-round inner-city ministries and projects.
