Specialty Services & Workshops
"As each has received a gift, use it to serve one another, as good stewards of God's varied grace..." 1 Peter 4:10
There are many benefits to being of service to others. You will not only receive a sense of achievement and purpose, you will also help the recipient experience the Grace of God.
For many families homelessness is the evidence of complex truama in a womans life. As well as the Gospel we practically minister to the whole woman. If you would like to offer your area of expertise as a gift to a homeless woman with children, call us today at 215-826-7810 to find out if your specialty is needed.
