Since 2012, the “House Of Hope” team in Linz has been ​accompanying refugees on their way to a successful ​integration in Austria. After 10 years of ministry we’ve ​had to say goodbye to our first “House Of Hope” locatio​n.

handshake

We are currently supporting refugees through integration ​assistance and practical help in a cooperation between ​International Teams Austria, our umbrella organization, ​and the Salem International Church in Linz. But since we ​serve a God of hope, our ministry shall continue at a new​ location for the​ “House Of Hope”.
