Overview

Mission

According to the Bible, in Matthew 25:31-46 we are commanded, as followers of Christ, to feed the hungry, give a drink to the thirsty and to shelter strangers, clothe the naked and to visit those who are sick or in prison.It is the purpose of The Sheepfold to fulfill those commandments for homeless women and their children who find themselves with no place to go, no food and no money.We believe the Bible is the inspired Word of God and that the Holy Spirit controlled the men who wrote it. We believe the Holy Spirit will activate the Word of God in the heart of a believer, and will cause it to bring restoration and regeneration to the life of the believer.We believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God, and that His is the only Name by which man can be saved. We believe He came to earth to forgive sin and give eternal life to those who receive Him as their Savior.

What it reported doing in 2011

To equip mothers with children suffering from homelessness or abuse for successful independent living with hope for the future. A key outcome is that they can live on their own independently and not be tempted to return to their abuser and destructive lifestyle.
