Our guests come to Rose Haven carrying burdens which most of us can’t fathom: loss of home, abuse, illness, addiction and poverty. And their suffering takes a huge toll on their hearts, souls, bodies and minds. I am inspired by their tenacity. I find my own hope in their capacity for hope. They make me proud.

There is so much hunger in our community which bread and water can only begin to satisfy. People are hungry to be loved just as they are, to be empowered and nourished in so many ways. Hospitality is a gift that we can offer each woman and child who come through our doors. I am grateful to be able to be present to our beautiful women and children at Rose Haven.
