After 32 years of full time ministry, God placed in our hearts a desire to help those who are in ministry.

During our own ministry, we experienced many different, sometimes hurtful emotions. During these times, we desired a place to which we could go and share our burdens, frustrations and deepest sorrows--a place where we could be heard and receive understanding and empathy. If you have been in ministry for even a short amount of time, you know these situations. We, in ministry, are often-times frustrated with our people and, on occasion, we are frustrated or even angry with God. At times in our ministry we wondered where God is; often we wanted to cry out and say, "I just don't believe you, God." These are natural feelings that many of the Old Testament men of God felt. I knew that I couldn't express these feelings of disappointment in God to my people. Even when we thought of sharing these feelings with our peers, we found they were at a loss, or simply unwilling, to help. With this in mind, we started the ministry of "Mended Wings" in order for ministers to have a place where they could come, relax, share their feelings and receive strength and encouragement to go on in the work to which God has called them. If you need a place like this, please call and let us minister to you.

Purpose Statement:

This purpose will be fulfilled by Mended Wings by:

• Offering a place where men and women in the ministry can come aside from the pressures of ministry and find rest, encouragement and strength to face both personal and ministry related pressures.
• Hosting seminars that will offer encouragement for those in ministry.
• Offering resources that will encourage and strengthen those in ministry.
• By allowing ministers of the gospel a safe, secure place to share their personal and ministry related needs.
