Community Collaboration

Mobile Outreach Services

Our Mobile Outreach Services bring members of our unhoused community in the resources they need for hygiene, food, water and personal connection. We do this through our Shower truck and SHARE (Shepherd’s House Aid and Relief Effort) van which travel throughout Central Oregon regularly.

Shelter Services

These shelters provide a safe place to rest, receive care, and take the first steps toward stability. Our shelters offer meals and a welcoming space for individuals and families experiencing homelessness, along with support that helps people take their next steps. Here, residents also receive peer support, case management and experience a compassionate community.

Long Term Recovery

We believe transformation happens through grace, truth, and time. Our long term recovery programs walk alongside individuals as they pursue healing, growth, and lasting change in a structured, faith-centered environment. With a safe place to live and a sense of belonging, people in our programs find hope, community and a transformed life.

Syd Brestel - Story of Transformation

When Syd retired from ministry, he wanted to continue serving, so he volunteered at Shepherd’s House Ministries. But decades of church ministry didn’t prepare him for what he found.

Mike Yunker - Story of Transformation

Pastor Mike shares how serving at Shepherd’s House Ministries transformed his life by creating a safe, grace-filled community focused on unconditional love and seeing the God-given worth in each person, and he believes preserving that authentic culture is the ministry’s most important future challenge.

Maybe you have had this thought like I have: “If only they could get a job ... that would solve so many of their problems.” With some income, they could get some food, get cleaned up, find a home, and get back on their feet.
