Providing a Helping Hand to Christina’s House

May 04, 2022

This past month, the staff at MBK pulled together much needed household supplies to deliver to Christina’s House, a ministry located in Springfield who provide education, support, and transitional housing to women and their children who are homeless or near homeless. Supplies gathered by our staff included necessities requested by Christina’s house including towel sets, juice boxes, toilet paper, laundry detergent, Tupperware sets and more.

Christina’s House seeks to provide immediate assistance to women who have no place to call home and feel safe. The ministry was established in 2012 by Executive Director, Shannon Mumblo. Their first home opened in 2014 and a second location was opened in 2020. Their program takes a holistic approach to providing their program families with the support they need to achieve self-sufficiency including long-term support after their families transition out of Christina’s House.
