About Us
Our Mission, Vision and Values
Our Mission
What do we do?
We seek God’s peace for our city through the creative, compassionate, and prayerful development of people and communities.
Since 1988, we have cultivated communities of hope and healing in the heart of our beloved city, Denver. We put our mission into action through supportive housing, leadership development, and initiatives that strengthen our neighbors’ capacity to thrive.
Serving the community for:
37+ years
Our Vision
Why do we do it?
Our vision is for Denver to be a city where those who were once poor enjoy the fruit of their labor; where children of the city are no longer doomed to misfortune, but play safely in the streets under the watchful eye of healthy old men and women; where former rivals and natural enemies live and work together in peace; and where all people enjoy the experience of communion with God.
This vision draws its inspiration from the breathtaking image of a city of joy found in the scriptures of our faith (for instance Isaiah 65:17-25 and Zechariah 8:4-5). The vision is inclusive of all; Mile High Ministries does not require or proselytize for, religious affiliations on the part of program participants.
Our Values
How do we go about our work?
Mile High Ministries’ way of seeing, being, and doing can be expressed by our ABCs:
Advocacy. We skillfully support people who are engaged in their own healing and the healing of their neighbors.
Beauty. We delight in the preciousness of every human person created in the image of God, and we create beautiful spaces for residents to thrive.
Community. We build communities of hope and healing where people are seen and known, where both joy and sorrow can be shared, and where all are invited to contribute.
