Women's Maternity Home

What its all about...

  •  Residential Faith Based maternity home for pregnant women in desperate circumstances – addiction, jail, destructive relationship, destitute, etc.

     

  •  Excellently located facility able to serve up                                                                                                 to 10 women simultaneously.

     

  •  It’s purpose is to break the cycle of bondage                                                                                       (emotional, physical and spiritual) in women                                                                                                and subsequently their children. 

     

  •  Not simply “betterment” program, but “development”                                                                                    in nature.

     

  •  The outcome is taking them from a lifestyle of negative                                                                          dependency to a mental, physical and spiritual healthy lifestyle.  Building and imparting value into their lives and ultimately the lives of their children.

     

  •  Mother and the father (when possible at the men’s ranch) will be mentored via the Teen Challenge method of education and real life application. 

 

How we do it...
 
  • By utilizing partnerships for prenatal care, transitional (post birth) housing placement, family counseling, and adoption alternatives.

     

  • In providing a safe, peaceful, positive, life impacting                                                                           housing environment.

     

  • Through the model of discipleship (mentoring).                                                                                          I.e. – If you only tell me I’ll forget, show me                                                                                            and I’ll remember, involve me and I’ll understand.

     

  •       Christian discipleship imparts meaning through                                                                            relationship and by affirming our true identity rooted                                                                                   in God’s love as opposed to value in “some-thing                                                                               relationship”.  It strips away a lifestyle of lies believed                                                                              and acted out and re-creates a new identity.

     

  • When a change is made the way in which a women thinks about herself, her own life and her child; her subsequent behavior will reflect that change and she will move further from being controlled by her circumstances and closer to an overcoming lifestyle.
