Help someone stay
another night in a safe
and warm place.
Responding to a Need.
St. Patrick’s Haven has provided for the needs of homeless men in the City of Erie since it was founded in 1984 as an outreach of Saint Patrick Parish. In the mid-1990s, it became a sponsored ministry of the Sisters of St. Joseph of Northwestern Pennsylvania.
"When I woke up in my bed I could feel deep in my core I was in a spiritual place. I knew I was safe."

A Special Labor Day at St. Patrick’s Haven! 🍔🍦
Our guests were treated to a wonderful Labor Day meal thanks to Carol Dorr, who generously provided dinner for the men staying at the Haven.
And what better way to finish a holiday meal than with a Frosty? 🍦 Thanks to the generosity of Joseph Hilbert and Christina Ohmer, each of our guests was able to enjoy a Wendy’s Frosty as a special treat!
These acts of kindness may seem simple, but they mean so much. Sharing a good meal and a special treat helps create moments of comfort, normalcy, and community for the men we serve.
Thank you, Carol, Joseph, and Christina, for thinking of our guests and helping us make Labor Day a little sweeter. 💚☘️
