Open Door Ministries

Our Mission is to address poverty, build communities, and cultivate disciples for Christ in Denver.

Open Door Ministries exists to provide practical help and hope to people in urban Denver who are experiencing homelessness or poverty. Our primary objective is to move people toward self-sufficiency by helping change the circumstances and life patterns that have held them captive to poverty and addictions. Through 17 distinct programs, we focus on tangible needs like food, shelter, access to education and employment training, as well as intangible needs such as friendship, hope, and Christian spiritual guidance. Since the issues faced by our friends tend to have many layers, Open Door has learned that the best way to help them succeed is to surround them with support, holistically empowering them to overcome obstacles, attain self-sufficiency, and thrive.
