Sponsor a Shut-In Family
Our families in the Shut In program are just that.. "shut in" their homes unable to work due to some sort of chronic disability or terminal illness in the family. This may be a single mom with a child with mental disability, or a father with cancer. By sponsoring a family, your monthly gift goes to the shut in ministry, and you are connected relationally by writing letters to your family. You have an opportunity to truly change a family's life forever.
