Mission Statement

The mission of ECTLC is to give each homeless individual and family an opportunity for a healthy, meaningful life by encouraging a personal relationship with God and applying Scripture to the person’s character, behaviors, and attitude, by fostering a safe and healing environment to learn and apply new tools for healthy decisions and relationships; by creating opportunities for work, service, and leadership, and to do all this with good customer service, professionalism, and open feedback as a model to all communities. Each day we are committed to sharing the gospel and meeting the spiritual, physical and emotional needs of families and individuals. We believe that the family is a precious creation of God and was designed by Him to be the core unit of society. A healthy family creates a healthy world. Our hope is to make our city a safer place through our vision of restoring relationships and unifying families.

Description

Our facility provides three meals daily for approximately 300 people. We provide emergency housing on a voucher system. We also provide laundry services and a clothing ministry for our residents. We provide an opportunity for participants to obtain counseling, Bible classes, anger management, parenting and substance abuse classes along with life skills, couples counseling and a resource center to assist in job seeking requirements. Our programs are free of charge to single men and women entering our discipleship programs. Our family programs require a minimal payment.
