our story

Really this should be called His story. We truly believe the haven was God’s idea and we have the privilege of joining Him in what He is doing.

After volunteering with youth in Minneapolis for several years, the three of us grew a passion for walking alongside young people in life. Doing this gave us a glimpse into the hardships that many youth face including lack of family support, homelessness, and isolation. To create a community where youth feel loved, cared for and supported seemed like a no-brainer.

After lots of prayer and conversation with our own community, we decided to establish the haven to share the hope of Jesus with any young person willing to receive it.
