Over 30,660 Victorians and 122,494 Australians will be without a place to call home tonight. They include families with children, young people, older people, single adults & people with disabilities.

Our Mission

Inspired by Jesus Christ, our mission is to support the Church as it provides accommodation to people in need and journeys with each person, offering physical, social, emotional and spiritual care as an expression of God’s love.

Our Vision

More than a place to stay

Providing love and support where it’s needed most

“What can I say? This time in my life will be with me for the rest of my days. This has been the catalyst which will help me to enjoy and live life again to the fullest.”

Alex*, Lodger

Alex* was in a motel before coming to the Lodge. Broken relationships and poor mental and physical health left him without secure housing. Alex stayed 12 weeks and reported enjoying the 'love, friendship, respect and laughter'. He was given support to attend appointments both virtually and in person and was able to find longer-term housing to move on to through a local church connection.  

*Name has been changed.

Our Models

Bringing together churches from different denominations to open their doors and welcome inside those who would otherwise have nowhere to stay.
