The current residents of Paradise Mountain Ministries represent sixteen different countries and four continents.  Most of our residents have spent the majority of their lives overseas, so the United States does not feel like home to them.  They often deal with the same cultural issues that internationals face when coming to the States.  Paradise Mountain strives to bridge that gap.

Residents are required to work seven hours a week at PMM in exchange for their room and board.  Chores may include dinner clean-up, mopping floors, putting food away from the "food-run," or generally anything that involves the maintenance of the houses and surrounding property.

 

On most evenings a "family meal" is served.  Residents take the time to unwind together and discuss the events of their day while enjoying a home-cooked meal prepared by the resident manager of the home (more affectionately referred to as the "house mom.")
