Mission: Connecting the mainstream and margins for mutual spiritual growth and transformation.
The goal of City House is conversion. Conversion from despair to joy.
Conversion from hopeless to hopeful. Conversion from want to wonder.

The core of our program is the practice of spiritual companionship.
At City House, we travel with our clients--listening, offering and asking. We work to
open up new perspectives and insights. We help to point out the possibilities along the
way. We tend to the soul.
Our spiritual companions accompany individuals and groups through spiritual journeys
and discoveries. We promote inner strength and fulfillment rather than a particular
religious faith.
The souls we serve are or have been homeless, prison inmates and those dealing with
chemical dependency. Our goal is to provide spiritual companionship and guidance to
our clients and to promote a return to self-reliance.
A spirited exchange awaits.

The spirit is always at work within City House.
City House opened its metaphoric doors in 2000. In reality, City House is not a place,
but a philosophy of spiritual exploration and companionship. We are a dedicated staff
of experienced and educated professionals. Our collective foundation includes work and
training in theology, spiritual direction, communications and the non-profit sector.
City House is a nonprofit organization with over 30 active volunteer spiritual directors. We provide our
services by partnering with social service agencies; we work with the agency’s clients, providing a spiritual
complement to the agency’s own mission.
We offer individual one-on-one sessions, group direction, and organized retreats.
