Holy Family House, a Catholic Worker Community:
We attempt to live simply, nonviolently, and in solidarity with our poor neighbors in the Catholic Worker tradition. Our purpose is to open our home in order to live out the process of actualizing the Works of Mercy and the Works of Justice, offering our lives and our home as resistance to cultural norms that advocate human and material waste. Our Mi

ssion:
The Holy Family House, or “Holy House” as our guests call it, sits in the 900 block of East 31st Street in Kansas City, Missouri amidst neighborhood homes, low-income apartments, abandoned buildings, and vacant lots. We live, in community, a simple lifestyle and are about a ministry of specific works of mercy and works of justice. Community and ministry are necessarily integrated elements of living at Holy Family House. Part of the ongoing purpose of Catholic Worker, by tradition, is to be a “school of radical Christianity, an invitation to know, through experience, the Gospel Jesus, who chose to become like, be with and for the poor.”

What We Do:
* Serve breakfast twice a week to people looking for food, warmth, and community.
* Build relationships with neighboring agencies, work together to build community in the Troost Corridor.
* Host student groups, faith communities, and other seekers who wish to learn about justice, poverty, and our common call to action.
