Meet Audrey Metzler, Lancaster Director  

Audrey Metzler began as the new Director of Bridge of Hope Lancaster a few weeks ago. We are incredibly grateful to God for the skills and experience that she will bring to this work as she returns to the Bridge of Hope team. 

From 1997 to 2008, Audrey served as Bridge of Hope's Program Director in Lancaster and Chester Counties and brings extensive experience to her new role.  Audrey has a Master's Degree in Counseling and a Bachelor's in Social Work from Eastern Mennonite University. 

Audrey has recently moved back to Lancaster County and is excited to re-engage our community.

HOMELESSNESS ENDS.

Malena and her son Lucas are facing homelessness.  They have lost so much over the past year–her health and her job, a miscarriage, her husband, and then their apartment. Malena needs a place to live, a better paying job, and someone to talk to.

Will you help Malena and families like hers get a new start in Lancaster County? 

Your gift will help four more families start services in Bridge of Hope if we reach our goal to raise $24,000 by March 31.
DONATE NOW
 HOPE BEGINS. 

Just one of many families we have heard from recently in Lancaster County, Lydia called to ask for help for herself and her two little girls.  They had been in a shelter but could only stay there a short time.   She is now sleeping on a couch at a friend's house but needs to get out soon because the apartment is overcrowded.   

Help us to serve many more families, like Lydia's, as soon as possible!  By gathering 6-10 people from your church, Bible study or house church, you can provide hope for a family facing homelessness.  Email AudreyM@bridgeofhopeinc.org to learn how your group can begin neighboring!


February's the month to show your love!  What's neighboring?  Learn more here or check out this video
