Our Mission
Bethany Place is a non-profit transitional home for single women and unwed mothers who desire to break the cycle of their past and to heal the wounds of fear and low self worth. Through a positive home atmosphere, discipline and responsibility, it is the focus of Bethany Place to educate such women to become productive and secure members of society through hard work, dedication and determination.
For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the hear.
Hebrews 4:12
Why we do what we do?
God has called us to “feed the hungry, take in the homeless and clothe the naked“ (Isaiah 58:6-7). Our main thrust in Ministry is to disciple women and children (James 1:27), to break the generational chains of poverty and sin by teaching the Word of God (Hebrews 4:12). Our desire is to see women come into the fullness of Christ and to become Godly women and Godly mothers
Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world
James 1:27
Our Program
Bethany Place offers a warm, loving environment for women who desire to change their lives. The program provides food, shelter and unconditional love to those meeting the criteria of a “sincere“ desire to change. We are an 24 month program with an emphasis on spiritual and emotional nurturing. Based on Christian values, we never condemn anyone for past mistakes, but encourage new values to break the bonds of poverty and abuse.
Children have often been the incentive needed for a woman to make the decision to enter as a resident and improve their lifestyle. Bethany Place ministers to the whole person. Every woman and child who have entered Bethany Place have seen the potential for a better life.
We offer a balanced but disciplined program that ministers to every need in preparing a woman to re-enter back into society as a whole person and when possible mend immediate family relationships. We have seen many lives changed over the last 30 years and have helped many women and children overcome the obstacles that have kept them down. We teach them that with a desire to change, through hard work and determination, they can reach their goal.
