Spurred on by a vision for providing Christian childcare for single mothers, Christ Our Shepherd Ministries' founder established the nonprofit organization in 1996. The vision was not only to provide childcare for single parents but also to be an encouragement hoping to empower them to reach financial and spiritual security. With the help of the community, local businesses and churches, we have set up a special program to meet their needs.

The single parent population is growing everyday. Single parents are male and female but the majority is female.

We are a mercy based ministry designed to help this population with spiritual guidance, emotional support, financial assistance for childcare and physical needs. Our goal is to help them improve the quality of life for themselves and their children.
