The Shelter Ministry
The Shelter Ministry runs to the hurting in our communities by focusing on supporting those involved in foster care and adoption while walking alongside those impacted by unplanned pregnancies or having abortion as part of their story.
This is done in several ways, including partnering with local organizations focused on these areas, mobilizing Broadmoor members to give generously of their time and resources to be involved, and equipping those with a passion for serving with the tools needed to best love those in need.

Ways to get involved

Lead
Leaders are always needed for support groups, life skills classes, and parenting classes through the Shelter Ministry.
Pray
Thousands of children in the foster care system and in the adoption process throughout Mississippi are looking for hope. There is anxiety and uncertainty for the parents involved in foster care or adoption or for women experiencing unexpected pregnancies. The agencies providing pregnancy counseling, foster care, and adoption services need support and strategy to meet the needs. Women and men impacted by abortion carry a heavy burden daily and need relief. These are all ways you can pray for those involved. Spend some time each week mentioning these groups and for God to provide according to their needs in His timing.
Volunteer
Through Broadmoor’s partners, you can give your time to help serve those on the front lines. Maybe you want to help work with women facing unexpected pregnancies at the Center for Pregnancy Choices, serve in a group home, or mentor a child in foster care. We can help you connect with several organizations to give generously of your time.
