Women and church community outreach pastors who desire to be part of a ministry that makes a difference in the lives of single moms and their children are welcome to attend a one-day workshop, from 8:45 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 8, at St. Peter CME Church, 1419 N.8th St., Kansas City, Kan.
Pastor Shirley Fletcher of St. Peter will welcome Karen Sinn, regional field representative for the Caring People in leading the workshop.
Workshop attendees will receive materials, lunch and information on how to get involved in TCP’s unique “Small Care Group” ministry model. Volunteer mentors and area chapter administrators are needed for the mission in the Kansas City area.
One in three homes in America is headed by a single mom – 95 percent of these moms do not have a church they call “home.” Springfield, Mo., native and co-owner of Silver Dollar City, JoDee Herschend, founded the organization in 1997 with a mission to “create an awareness of and a desire to meet Jesus to thousands of Single Moms.” The ministry currently exists in Kansas, Missouri, Ohio and internationally in El Salvador and continues to grow.
