Single Parent Ministry

Do you know a single parent family who does not have a healthy place to live? The SPARK (Single Parent Alliance for Raising Kids) program can provide shelter and care. Do you know of a single parent family who seems to be in a never ending circle of unfortunate circumstances? Teaching, counseling and support from caring staff families are the tools needed to stop the heartbreaking cycle. Please remember this

ministry can help mend hearts and give families the ability to become stronger and healthier. No fees are charged for the services to these children and families. Applications can be found on our website: www.potterministries.org. If you would like to recommend Potter’s services to someone, please have them contact Lee Fowlkes at (270) 843-3038 or by email at [email protected].
