They are supported in whole by the faith community, individuals and a couple of grants. They are truly a "grass roots" ministry with a mission of serving the homeless, when they have no other home to go to. They serve the homeless 24/7, 365 days a year. Christ Church supported Samaritan House in 2008 with volunteer projects.
