Welcome, Ronald Frantz, Executive Director
We are pleased to introduce Ronald Frantz as GNP’s new Executive Director. The selection of a new leader for GNP is the result of a 3-year decision-making process by board and staff and we are excited to have Ronn to take on the leadership of GNP in July 2010. Previously, Ronn was a senior manager with Reba Place Fellowship. Reba Place has a long history of empowering families through their commitment to affordable housing. We are confident that Ronn will build on what has begun with GNP and also bring new direction for the organization. Welcome, Ronn.

Founder of Good News Partners, Bud Ogle, will continue to be part of Good News Partners in his new role as President Emeritus.  Bud will work about a quarter time in the community and in the area of fundraising.

Good News Partners pledges that no one need be homeless in the North of Howard community of East Rogers Park.

Through our affordable housing, including single room occupancy, rental apartments, and co-operative housing, we provide a continuum that leads from homelessness to homeownership.

Good News Partners is a Christian asset-based community organization, focusing on housing, education and economic development. We seek to embody the hope, freedom, opportunity, community and justice God intends for us all. We welcome everyone. As partners we believe each of us has unique gifts and talents and a responsibility to share with all. We want everyone to lead at the point of their gifts.

We invite you to take a virtual tour of Good News Partners through this site. You may want to begin with the GNP video that will help you see the overall philosophy of GNP. The video will help you experience the true spirit of Good News Partners: to share the good news of justice and liberation (Luke 4:18-20) and to accept God’s reign in which there will be no unmet needs (Acts 4:34).
