Nuturing the body and souls of the homeless, and enriching students' lives!

Sr. Rose Tillemans, a Sister of St. Joseph of Carondelet, St. Paul Province, opened the door of Peace House Community at 510 East Franklin Avenue on October 17, 1985. This place provided a new and unique ministry in the heart of one of the poorest and crime ridden neighborhoods in south Minneapolis.

Rose recognized that people's spirits and souls needed to be nourished and healed. This became a ministry of listening to the stories of those who had no one to listen to them. It would provide a place for the most misunderstood and least loved in our society to call “home”. It would be about what people need after they have been fed and clothed. Since the beginning Peace House Community strives to understand and love each person.
