Second Annual ONE of 100 Campaign!

As we look back on the past year, we are filled with wonder at the incredible work of our God. Around this time last year, our housing committee convened to finalize plans for the launch of Selah Home. We gathered for organized prayer walks every Wednesday morning around the location of the home, and prepared to launch our inaugural One of 100 campaign. Despite having only paid the deposit to rent the property, we had no other funds in the bank to open the home. To say that we were taking a leap of faith would be an understatement. Nevertheless, fueled by the vision placed upon our hearts and encouraged by the doors that had opened, we recognized the pressing need for a safe residential program for pregnant women.

Here we are! The doors have been open for nine months. The exact number of months a women is pregnant. Much like a pregnancy, Selah Home has gone through major transformation and some adjustment from the original vision. Yet, as we reflect on these past few months, God has been refining us in the process to design a residential program that will draw women to Him and provide transformative life changes through Jesus Christ.

In these first eight months, we’ve received over 60 referrals and conducted assessments for 20 women. We’ve providing housing for eight women, three newborns, and three toddlers. Additionally, two women have embraced Jesus as their Savior, one of whom has been baptized. The demand for our services exceeds our initial expectations.

Although we offer housing throughout pregnancy and for up to a year after, the duration of our mom’s stay is shorter than we anticipated. This underscores the urgent need for us to immediately engage with our residents about their spiritual needs and provide intensive therapy to address the traumas they’ve experienced.

This brings us to You, our faithful supporters. We need your continued prayer and financial support. On June 1st, we kick off our second annual One of 100 Campaign. Selah Home, is seeking 100 individuals/groups willing to use their time and talents to raise $1,000.00 each. This giving campaign starts June 1st and will continue for 100 days, ending September 9th.
