I want to thank Brian,Kathleen and Chrissy for everything during my stay over Easter weekend. I wasnt sure if I could afford to make the trip from Pittsburgh.When I found out about The Hospitality House it was a blessing!!They made our stay very comfortable it was a home away from home. I came with a little boy Jack whom hadnt seen his mom in 5 months. Im trying to come for another visit in May. I told my family I wish I could do something as wonderful as what this house and the people who run it does. Just think I may have to look into that Once again thank you and I will see you again soon.

I have stayed many times at the Alderson Hospitality House. Those who work on the prisoner’s and my behalf are always friendly, caring, and compassionate. The BEST part about staying at the Alderson Hosp. House is being able to talk with others in a similar situation, hearing stories, receiving a listening ear…..while sipping a great cup of coffee, relaxing in the spacious family room, on the balconies, front porch, or gathering in the kitchen. The rooms are spacious and clean, with the whole ambiance of the old home warm, welcoming. The bathrooms were updated and are very nice. So much hard work, love, and care, have gone into making this a place of rest and respite for all who come to visit a prisoner. May God richly bless this ministry! Thank you to each who have ministered to me!

Oh its been 10yrs and i am just as thankful today as I was back during 2001 when you nurtured my husband and daughter. She was in school in Pa and use to drive down to see me. She held on with mental support from people like you and is now a dentist. Thank you so much for being there and being so warm and caring. My husband says you are an excellent “bed & breakfast” and wants to come back just because. My Christmas donation is on the way. May god continue to bless you.

My family and I had such An awesome time on our visit to alderson. The staff at alderson house was warm and so much appreciated. This was our first visit to west virgina, and they made us feel welcome and treated us like family, they even gave my grandaughter a birthday party for her second birthday. Thank you alderson house and may God continue to bless you in all of your efforts. Mary Mason

We visited our daughter 5 times over the past year and had the pleasure of staying at AHH each time. We always left a donation, but never felt it was enough, just all we could manage with traveling 21 hours round trip to visit. This is one of the neatest ministries we have ever had the pleasure of knowing about. We fell in love with the staff (and the fantastic food you all cooked), but also this wonderful historical house. To know that is is being used to minister not only to the family/friends but also to the ladies at the camp is very encouraging in this day and age. The wonderful play room was such a blessing with having a 3 year old to entertain! She actually had her third birthday there and you managed a cake in her honor! How sweet of you. When we decided to visit for Christmas we did not know that you would manage for Santa to know that our granddaughter was there! The preparation (even the adults weren’t left out) really was outstanding in the decorations and the holiday meals. It was one of the best Christmasas we have had in many years and that is strange since the family is separated by incarceration, but you all made it a wonderful experience in spite of that. We will never forget the sincere prayer before each meal for God’s blessings on the ones gathered for the meal, the folks that made it possible for the meal and especially for our dear loved one at the camp. It meant so very much to us and wish to thank you for allowing God to work through you to minister in this very special way. Ashley, Kathleen and Brian, blessings are sure to come to you very special people!

I think you are providing a much-needed and valuable service not only to the folks visiting their loved ones at the Alderson FWP, but also to the community and the inmates themselves. Perhaps without you, some of the inmates would not be able to have visitations. Please keep up the great work!
