Room in the Inn
Room in the Inn is a structured intentional
Christ-centered community supporting people in need of a safe place to receive shelter and compassionate care as they seek to work through transitional life changing events.
Rooms are provided to offer a peaceful and quiet nights sleep. Guests are given time and care by the innkeepers in order to bring stability to their lives. Guests are encouraged to access supportive assistance from local agencies and loving folks. The goal is to assist our guests in establishing new opportunities of homes and employment.
Please follow this ministry on our Facebook page Room in the Inn Columbia, TN. Our needs are ever changing and we seek community support for food, clothing, linens, etc.
