The Samaritan Women is a nonprofit Christian enterprise, comprised of three distinct, but related, ministries.  We serve individuals, groups and the community at large, with a unified mission of reaching into Baltimore City and the greater metropolitan area with the message of healing, hope, and wholeness.

Living

The Samaritan Women Residence provides a Christ-centered environment for individual women who are ready to make positive changes in their lives.  We offer a transitional residence, academic and vocational training, spiritual development, and communal support to women who are rebuilding their lives from hurtful choices of unfortunate circumstances.

Learning

Our Event Center welcomes churches, youth groups, nonproft organizations, community groups, sobriety meetings--any group looking for a haven in the City where you can enjoy fellowship, build community, and promote healing.  Our accompanying Spiritual Garden provides a lovely setting for larger outdoor events or a quiet place for meditation and reflection.

Growing

The Community Garden is our ministry to the whole community, growing fresh produce to support local farmer's markets, shelters and food banks, and providing a garden oasis in the heart of the City.  Our vision is to expand the Garden to offer small garden plots to individuals and families to learn about horticulture, ecology, and urban gardening, and to provide a healthy alternative for their own tables.

For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, I needed clothes and you clothed me,  I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.  -- Matthew 25:35-36
