What We Do

Wounded Shepherds is a 501(c)3 non-profit ministry whose purpose is to be a safety net for those Christian pastors, ministry leaders and missionaries and their families who are going through crisis. We are a place of hope, encouragement, resources and solutions.

Here are the ways we can minister to you or to a pastor you love:

1. Counseling with pastors, spouses, children (on-location or off-location through phone, email, skype).

2. Writing and providing daily devotions (Monday - Friday) for pastors and all Christians who need the encouragment and truth of God's Word. (See our Creation Captures page for more information.)

3. Weekend Retreat at Riverbend Retreat (our retreat) for wounded pastors/missionaries and their spouses, which will include:

 

-Counseling assessments

 

-One on one counseling with pastor and spouse (Gray counsel husband, Paula counsel wife)

 

-Couple counseling 

 

-Exploring and applying biblical solutions 

 

-Providing relaxed atmosphere devoid of all distractions

 

-Resources to help your children

 

-Resources to take home

 

-Gift basket 

 

-All expenses paid weekend

 

-When you and your spouse leave our Retreat, you will have been loved on, pampered, prayed for, and you will know that we are your friends for life

 

4. Networking with pastors/leaders/organizations for additional guidance. 

5. Networking with other organizations for continued progress and/or job placement. 

6. Creating a community of ministers through a website and social media.

7. As funds allow, offering emergency housing and other emergency needs.
