Miriam's Hope now has a website! https://www.miriamshope.com/

We have also finished our two apartments. We held interviews for our first apartment at the beginning of the year, and the client selected has been living at Miriam's Hope and receiving services for a few months now. She came to the program after her child was removed from her care with active discussions about eventual termination of her parental rights. This means she would be forced to give up her child for adoption.

We are so excited, and thankful to God, for how Miriam's Hope has been able to work in this client's life. It has been a miracle to watch this client's transformation, and she and her child will be reunited this month. Please pray that the transition will be smooth for both.

We are now accepting applications to fill our second apartment. Families who apply will then go through a type of interview process to determine their understanding of and commitment to the process of rebuilding their lives through Christ that we do at Miriam's Hope. Please pray for the applicants and those of us who will be discerning which client will be the best fit for the program.

If you would like to help in more ways, we are actively looking for donations of:

  • Pillows and pillow cases
  • Twin-size bedsheets and bedding
  • Cleaning supplies
  • NIV Women's Study Bibles
  • Children's movies on DVD
  • Family & children's board games
  • Reliable vehicle.

Looking for a group activity? We are seeking service groups to provide the following:

  • Basic landscaping
  • Writing letters of encouragement to our clients
  • Teaching a lifeskills class, such as cooking, job hunting, etc.
  • Providing care on-site for children while their parents are receiving services.
