Why Aphesis House

Mark 11:25

“And whenever you stand praying, forgive, if you have anything against anyone, so that your Father also who is in heaven may forgive you your trespasses.”

To date, Aphesis House has provided its services to over 780 men. 72 men received services through Aphesis House during the year 2010. All received birth certificates & Identification; 87% are working and drug free; 12% have received their GED’s and out of the 72 men served 12 were disabled.

Aphesis Means “forgiveness”

We believe that all have fallen short of the Glory of God, but that no one is too far gone for redemption. It is out of this conviction that Aphesis House is committed to not turning anyone away based on the nature of their past transgressions, resulting in our agency service some of the most disenfranchised and vulnerable men within our communities.
