Services provided by CIM

Christian Inn Ministries is dedicated to helping women who want a new beginning in their lives, and is currently raising funding to reopen our Cincinnati houses for women. The Margie House in Pittsburgh remains open.

Every day women are being released from incarceration with a deep desire to live right, but with an equally deep fear that they won't be able to do it. Without support, their fears are most likely to come true. Christian Inn Ministries is committed to helping women bridge the gap between incarceration and a fulfilled life in Christ on the outside.

The services CIM’s Margie House provides include housing, supervision, and Christian love and support to women who are released from prison or jail. Our program addresses the needs of the whole person: physical, spiritual, and emotional.  Bible studies and regular church attendance build the women's relationship with God. Inner-healing prayer is provided weekly so that roots of abuse and rejection are dealt with, which sets women free from the past.  The recommended stay is six months, and follow-up with graduates continues as long as contact is possible.

Each resident benefits from:

  • a secure and loving environment
  • Bible studies
  • life skills classes
  • discipleship
  • vocational training and education
  • inner healing
  • daily prayer
  • service opportunities
