| Refugee Resettlement |
| In partnership with Catholic Charities, TPCS has committed to welcoming families to the Sewickley area and helping them to build a new life. We have already resettled two families since January 2009 and we are committed to continuing in these efforts. We need all hands on board. You can serve on a care team, drive to appointments, help to furnish apartments, assist in employment search or help with childcare. You can be a friend. Contact Nancy House for more details.

| Transitional Housing |
| This ministry seeks to provide short-term housing solutions, coupled with supportive fellowship and Christian love, to those who find themselves without shelter due to temporary circumstances involving job-loss, home foreclosure, domestic abuse and other unforeseen life circumstances. We will partner with North Hills Community Outreach to identify need in the Pittsburgh area and provide wraparound services in a time of uncertainty. Please consider joining the planning team as this important ministry unfolds.
