GSLC Milestone House Lease Signed !

Yes! Monday, November 23, 2009 T.H.E. Milestone House became reality. Praise God for moving this project along at record speed by bringing together Good Shepherd Lutheran Church, The Youth Mentor Project and several government agencies including Sandy City Housing. December 1, the five youth, 18 and 19 year olds, will be moving into T.H.E. Milestone House. T.H.E. Milestone House is a model program; a two year project that will be carefully monitored and described to provide a model for other shared houses for foster youth in transition.

Experience clearly shows that without a safe place to live there is little chance for youth to hold a job, attend school, build lasting relationships or stay out of trouble. This Thanksgiving I thank God and all our wonderful volunteers for helping to make this vision a reality for these youth.

Thanks and praise,

P. Christine
