𝐇𝐞𝐥𝐩𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐇𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐬 𝐚𝐭 𝐌𝐞𝐫𝐜𝐲’𝐬 𝐒𝐡𝐨𝐫𝐞 With only four apartments available, our selection process is rigorous. Our selection criteria prioritizes families committed to change, ensuring that our limited resources make a lasting impact: ✅ Self-Elimination: Some families intentionally seek alternative housing, removing themselves from consideration. ✅ Criminal Offense Nature: Violent offenses against children or the elderly disqualify individuals. However, most other offenses can be considered with the right context. ✅ Willingness for Change: A critical requirement is the mother's genuine desire to change. Without this commitment, we run the risk of being just another housing program, which we strive not to be. Our process is inclusive and does not discriminate based on race, color, creed, national origin, or religious preference. We seek families ready to embrace change, allowing for meaningful support and lasting transformation. If you know families that could benefit from our program or want to get involved, please reach out to Mercy’s Shore. Together, we can create a brighter future for those in need! #NonProfitOrganization #CommunitySupport #TransformingLives #Philanthropy

For more than 20 years, our organization, The Center for Clergy & Church Support (with partners in 24 states and 6 countries), has helped to plant, grow and enhance churches and nonprofit organizations, as well as train, equip, and strengthen other pastors and leaders in Administration, Community engagement, and capacity building. We also handle basic legal issues, as well as conduct administrative and financial audits. Our overarching mission is to “equip Believers to Transform the World”. We do this by helping leaders discern if they have the gifts and calling to plant a church, ministry or nonprofit organization (Assessment), understand the best principles and practices to plant successfully (Training), make good decisions or, at least, keep from making the big mistakes (Coaching), and figure out how to grow and strengthen what they've planted (Strategic Planning). Please visit our website (clergycenter.org), or view our video below that tells more about us and all that we do, and please let me know if there is anything that we can help you with regarding your organization. https://lnkd.in/gJGp7pai #churchfamily; #churchesoftheworld; #church #pastors #churchleadership #churches
