I find it great when I support  someone in need while I support  myself! Wouldn't you concur with me? If you are like that, I have an idea just for you!

You join our movement! You pull and lace up your old- or new- walking shoes ( oil your bike to get some road miles, even prepare your skates, or shake your arms to pickle-ball/swim), and STEP UP FOR THE PHILEO HOUSE from February 24th through March 23rd! You will be destroying unnecessary fat cells, increasing your energy, and building muscle mass, all while you bring a shelter, and much needed hope, to a family who has recently lost their home and safety. #ACarIsNotAHome. How about that!

And the beauty of it all is that you can do it from anywhere in the world,  set your own goals and pace, and finish it up in a month. Our Walk-A-
Thon (maybe Move-A-Thon whould have been a more appropriate name) will create a space of hope and empowerement for women,  and wellness for you at the same time. Double whammy!

We've been Spirit- led with a clear mission for our future at The Phileo House: to provide a safe haven exclusively for women and their children. This is all God guiding us, and showing us face to face women (and their youngsters) who need a transitional roof now, and how urgently needed is The Phileo House.
​
 We all know the gut-wrenching reality of a mother and her kids having no choice but to live in a car, or share a place with many other people with unknown intentions. The weight of fear, shame, anger, and helplessness is all too real. Unfortunately, many of them feel inadequate, or do not speak the English language to either ask for help, or even reach out privately. Many more times that we know, they are either hiding from their closest family members, or  been pushed away for various reasons. No Job, no car, no roof, no reliable spouse or partner. Where do they restart from? How?

 This is where we step in. We've been called to bring something different: HOPE, SHELTER, and EMPOWERMENT. As we listened to the voice of the Lord, I am reminded of this Bible verse, which  has become palpable for us:
Psalm 32:8 "I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will counsel you with my eye upon you".
Thanks to God's guidance, we are following the true plan he has in store for us. Too many women, and kids, are praying for The Phileo House to come about. This shift in mission  will bring it to completion faster, in Him and with His favor. Pivoting is just our way of replying with a resound YES and being obedient to God's call. We are blessed and grateful. May you continue linking arms with us and lifting The Phileo House in prayer.
God's blessings.
