"For the most part, the property description for Providence's new St. Andrew House seems like everything one would expect for an apartment in the heart of the city. Rent varies depending on the size and location of the unit, with utilities billed separately. No smoking and no pets; tenant parking is nearby; onsite amenities include a kitchen and dining room (perfect for the community meals which tenants will share). The location - at the top of Smith Hill, about a block away from the State House - provides convenient access to I-95, to RIPTA, as well as to downtown, and to the East Side of Providence. Standard fare, really.
"But something different is afoot here. The building/property is the home of St. Andrew House, an independent, lay-operated intentional community for Catholic men, living together for the purpose of spiritual, intellectual and moral formation, and for accountability and encouragement in Christian discipleship."
A recent Rhode Island Catholic article profiled St. Andrew House and its ministry.
