I-HELP

Interfaith Homeless Emergency Lodging Program

Church of the Wayfarer is pleased to host homeless men and women at the church each once per month.  Donations of food and volunteers for set-up, clean-up and to dine with our guests are always needed.  For more information and to sign-up, please contact church office by phone at 831-625-3550 or email at office@churchofthewayfarer.com.

I-HELP offers program participants shelter and meals in over two dozen Monterey Peninsula congregations. The heart and backbone of our program operation are the hundreds of dedicated volunteers providing compassionate hospitality.

Each evening, I-HELP transports single homeless men from central pick-up points to a hosting faith community where they spend the night. I-HELP’s ever-growing services also include job placement and housing assistance, clothing, and specialized referrals meeting the individual needs of participants.
