Teen Challenge Polska - Chrześcijańska Misja Społeczna w Broczynie

In the last years the economic and social situation in Poland has transformed a lot. The group of socially excluded people has appeared. Our Christian Social Mission Teen Challenge helps the unemployed, addicts, homeless, single mothers and poor. Because of them we created a network of consultation points and meeting points "Coffee House".

What is "Coffee House"
First of all, it is a group of volunteers, who want to help in the local place, on the streets, railway stations and parks. They look for persons in need, talk to them, encourage and invite them to drop in. Once a week the volunteers have a meeting with the guests. Volunteers usually offer a free cup of coffee or tea and sandwiches. They have time for a talk and relations, they may solve problems or deliver some goods. The addicts are motivated to start the therapy and seek help. Fixed point of the meetings is the proclamation of the God's Word and a prayer time for the needs of the guests.
Very important part of the work is prevention. The staff can lead a training or consultations at the schools.
The program of "Coffee House" is simple and dynamic. It is a bridge between the church and the street. The cooperation with the local church or christian community is an important aspect if you want to start.

This idea of Teen Challenge "Coffee House" works in several countries and makes progress. "Coffee House" has European background, which is 20 years old. The first polish group started in 2003 in Koszalin. Now we have 30 "Coffee Houses" all around country.
