Mission Statement

At The Nehemiah House, our mission is to bring hope and healing to children and families by meeting both practical and spiritual needs. Rooted in faith, we serve through free programs, compassionate outreach, and Christ-centered teaching—nurturing lives, strengthening communities, and sharing God’s love throughout Philadelphia and beyond.

The Nehemiah House envisions a thriving community where children and families are empowered to walk in faith, discover their God-given purpose, and experience the love of Christ in practical and transformative ways. We seek to raise up a generation that is strong in spirit and service, equipped to shine as leaders who live with compassion, integrity, and hope.
 

Through innovative outreach—such as our mobile library, holistic youth programs, and community care initiatives—we aim to make disciples, break cycles of poverty, and leave a lasting legacy of faith, love, and service that strengthens Philadelphia and inspires communities far beyond.
