CITY LIFE CHURCH OUTREACH AND ASSOCIATE PROGRAMS

OUTREACH Programs:

ST. JOSEPH'S HOUSING GROUP    MEN'S PROGRAM   Pastors Ken and Marie Delany together with John Ward and Bishop Lionel Parsons created St. Joseph's Housing Group to deal with men who desire to become "clean and sober" and live constructive Christian lives. Using available resources from the community the men are placed in a "Intensive Out Patient" structured drug and alcohol program together with a structured Christian bible centered 12 Step drug and alcohol recovery program. The men are required to make "AA" and "NA" meetings daily in the local community 12 Step Meetings. The Rock Church International has started a family program to help men regain connection with their children and if possible with their estranged wives.  All possible steps are taken to reunite the men with those they have abused with their past behavior. Reconnecting men with the responsibilities that they have shelved for so long and creating a path that is not overwhelming for them to take.  

 

ASSOCIATE Programs:

OVERINGTON HOUSE    WOMEN'S TRANSITIONAL HOUSE FOR HOMELESS WOMEN AND THEIR CHILDREN
Philadelphia House of Prayer Pastor Marie Delany has founded Overington House Transitional Living Facility for homeless women with their children. Marie secured two million dollars in funding to make Overington House a reality. This facility houses 13 single parent families with their children. Two of the bedrooms located on the first floor are designed for handicap usage for either the mother or one or more of her children. Overington House allows a woman with her children to live in the facility for up to two years. The mission is to encourage and support the return of women with their children to the normal mainstream society, with the emotional and spiritual strength, life skills and work skills, to enable them to support themselves and successfully parent their children.
 

LEADERSHIP NETWORK OF PHILADELPHIA 

Leadership Network of Philadelphia was formed November 2003. The very first Community Based Non Profit Organization in The State of Pennsylvania who's Mission and Vision for the future is to form meaningful Collaborative Partnerships between The Community, The Church, The Home and The School Districts. As of the beginning of fiscal year 2006 will expand its vision to include recreational centers as After School Site/locations throughout central Philadelphia. This increases opportunity to provide after school for all. It also makes it possible to include students of all cultural backgrounds. Our students meet after school at local neighborhood churches in their neighborhoods. Each location "site" provides after school services to approximately 50 students on a daily basis. All students are monitored for school attendance and academic proficiency. The goals of Leadership Network's after school program are to develop leaders. We set basic responsibilities, by simply raising the bar regarding accountability and expectations. The entire school year is spent preparing to increase our student’s scores in their annual examinations. These preparations includes practice for the Teranova test and PSA test both administered by The Department of Education in Harrisburg Pennsylvania.

Leadership Network of Philadelphia is the first community based organization to focus on building collaborations in different neighborhoods and of different ethnic backgrounds. LNP intends to expand it's vision to include Philadelphia's Recreational Facilities as Site Locations. We bring together the School, the Church, the Community and the Home. We continually instill in all of our students that If you mind can conceive it, and your heart can believe it, then you can achieve it.
