Donor Spotlight: Robyn & Andrew

October 27, 2017

We began supporting Christ House in the early 1990s because I had begun serving Friday dinner with the St. Albans Church group and saw firsthand the incredible physical and spiritual healing and personal growth that was taking place in front of me.

Help us Beat the Heat

August 9, 2017

Last summer, the 20-year-old chiller at Kairos House became unrepairable. The chiller is a crucial component of the air conditioning system. It is important that we provide an environment with regulated temperatures and well-circulated air for the men who live at Kairos House. Half of the men are over 60 years old and many of […] More…
