Providence Meets Denver United

Last fall, Denver United contacted us to see if we knew a place where our brothers from the local halfway house could transition into after being released. The transition is often not easy for the guys. Housing is hard to find with a criminal record and the skills needed to maintain a job, manage a budget, and continue their spiritual journey in their new found freedom can be tough. Matt arranged a meeting for him to introduce Denver United Church staff to our friends at Providence Network. These men came together, created a plan, and now our brothers have a safe place to transition at Providence Network's housing facility called Victory. For our last GO Day, Denver United filled their new place with all the essential items needed to start these men out right and we also made improvements to Victory such as painting, cleaning, and organizing. We are excited for the opportunity our brother's have to get on their feet, maintain healthy boundaries, and grow spiritually with the help of our church body. Pray for them as they settle in and continue to pursue their walk with Christ.
