This community located at 203 Rosette Street shares table hospitality at breakfast and the midday meal with 50 to 60 people in need each day. They operate from a house that is 113 years old and in need of repair. Yet the door remains open and there is
always someone there to say: "Come in, you are home. We can help you."
Mark and Lucy Colville along with son Isaac, Herb, a long-standing member of the community, who is the chef and Sarah, the most recent member, and a graduate of Divinity School work together in a variety of ministries to serve the community including food, shelter, pastoral care, and conversation.
Mark does non-violent resistance against war and U.S. military intervention.
Janice and Mark have done actions together to shut down Guantanamo.

Mark expressed interest in Dotty joining the open and inclusive celebration of the Eucharist in down town New Haven, called "Chapel on the Green." Dotty expressed joy in anticipation of working with this grassroots community, " I am looking forward to meeting the rest of the community to determine how we might work together in celebrating our spiritual lives and commitment to this prophetic justice ministry. "
