The transitional housing ministry of Timberline Church is one way we
can share the love of Jesus to those experiencing a housing crisis.
Whether it is those who have been evicted or those forced to sleep
in their car, our desire is to provide short term transitional
housing at minimal cost. We currently have one cabin with one
bedroom that we are using to help meet that need. We do not charge
rent, but we do ask for payment for the cost of electricity. We are
not aware of any other providers of transitional housing in Southern
Lancaster County.
Although we do not advertise, we average 1-2 inquiries per month
requesting housing. We are committed to using this one cabin for
transitional housing and desire to make more cabins available for
this ministry in the future. Lois Nafziger, a cancer survivor and
sister of the pastors, has ridden her bicycle across the continental
US this spring to raise money to support this ministry. Please

endeavor, please contact the church office. |
