✨A huge thank you to Barry’s Carpentry out of Farmington Hills for stopping by after their workday to surprise us with an upgrade! 🙏They built us an access door for our can drop-off house, making managing our can donations easier for our guests and volunteers. Thank you for taking the time to serve a community outside your own and for being the hands and feet of Jesus!✨

We have an exciting success story to share! One of our guests moved into her own apartment this past weekend. Her journey at Lydia's Gate has been one of transformation; along with finding a place to call her own, she worked non-stop to secure a vehicle and financial independence!

Lydia’s Gate is different because we focus on the "why" behind the struggle. We provide a Christ-centered environment that empowers guests to trade survival mode for long-term stability. At Lydia’s Gate, we believe true success begins with how you see yourself. We don’t cater to the "victim" mentality; instead, we focus on our guests' strengths, refusing to let them become slaves to their past circumstances. We are so proud of this woman’s hard work and honored to have been part of her story!

Our faces when we saw the snow this morning: 👁️👄👁️

If you saw us staring out the window with our jaws on the floor this morning... no you didn't. 🤣We’re just as confused as everyone else! While we’ve officially given up on trusting the "No more snow" rumors, we are 100% certain about tomorrow.

Snow or shine, our Lydia's Gate Spring Awakening Auction is ON and it’s going to be a total blowout! We clearly can’t predict the weather, but we can predict that you will have a good time!

Check back tonight to see our FB live that will feature all of the items up for bidding!
