Our Mission
To fulfill the Gospel call to love our neighbors as ourselves by recognizing the God-given dignity of each person and providing essential life services to those in need.
The most recent statistics indicate that more than 1,000 men, women and children in South Dakota are without a home. The Bishop Dudley Hospitality House offers a warm, safe and secure place to start the road back to a more stable, long-term way of living.
Located in downtown Sioux Falls, our facility is within walking distance of several agencies that provide programs for the needy, supporting the proven plan to work in partnership with existing agencies to coordinate many services under a single roof.
In 2022, we served 1,720 unique individuals, 45 families, and 112 children.
