Just a few years after being started as a ministry in Richland, Elijah Family Homes is seeing tangible results. Sharing Christmas with her son in her own home was a goal Michell Owens said she made for herself a year earlier when she was homeless — before she was accepted into Elijah Family Homes’ transitional housing program. With EFH’s help, in December 2012, Michell and her son Kayden, 3, put candy canes on their Christmas tree together.
