Overnight facility-based shelter for men. Shelter guests arrive in the evening and must exit the following morning. Capacity is 36 beds.

CityTeam Ministries is involved throughout the Delaware Valley in real life situations with the people that walk through our doors. Dedicated and caring staff and volunteers reach out to those in need of a hot meal, a safe shelter, and decent clothing. We also offer a recovery program for those men that are on the road of destruction from drugs and alcohol.

We connect with low-income families that are in need of an emergency food box to help stretch their income at the end of the month. Mothers with at-risk young children stop by every Wednesday afternoon to receive diapers, formula, and other baby items. You can make a difference by volunteering, donating or financially supporting this special ministry to the poor and homeless.

Must be 18 years of age and able bodied - (must be able to climb the steps to the second floor shelter). Shelter guests will not be permitted to enter the facility if they are under the influence of alcohol and/or drugs. Identification is also needed.
