The Urban Family Ministries Youth Center

In December 2005, a local church donated a building to Urban Family Ministries. This building, an old book warehouse located in the Baxter Neighborhood of Grand Rapids at 543 Eastern Avenue, is slated to become the new Urban Family Ministries Youth Center. Once the renovations are complete, Urban Family Ministries will have a location that will provide…

  • A “community center” for families in the neighborhood where our mentors can meet with the children they serve

  • A forum for discussing spiritual issues

  • An art studio for children and teens to learn and develop skills such as painting and sculpture

  • A coffee bar which will provide refreshment, as well as a forum to teach youth the elements of running a business

  • An area for the Grand Rapids Police Department, allowing
    Urban Family Ministries to be a catalyst in helping to improve law enforcement/community relations.

Offices for Urban Family Ministries staff

The location of the future Urban Family Ministries Youth Center in the Baxter Neighborhood allows Urban Family Ministries to be physically present in the "market" it serves.
