Hosts for Hospitals Looking for Host Families

Hosts for Hospitals is a nonprofit agency providing free lodging and support at host-homes as a caring response to the housing needs of patients and their families who come to Greater Philadelphia for specialized medical care. Although they have an extensive host network, occasionally a housing need arises for which they do not have a host available. Currently they need four homes from June 8-July 1 in Chester and Delaware counties, and/or near Wilmington Delaware to lodge people who will be receiving services dogs from Canine Partners for Life (CPL). They especially need homes that are handicap accessible for two families.. For more information or if you or someone you know might be able to help out, click here for the message from Hosts for Hospitals.

Come and find out at the MCO Healthcare Fellowship Lunch on Sunday, May 6, 12:45-2:00 pm in Fellowship Hall. Dr. Bob Snyder will speak on "Journeying with Jesus - Being a Witness in the Workplace."
