About Sharing Hope Ministry: Our Mission is to assist at-risk and incarcerated women in changing their story by SHARING HOPE through Christ’s love. There are three programs under the Sharing Hope umbrella. The Sharing Hope Ministry Bible program offers free services to women who are residing in correctional or addiction rehabilitation facilities across all 50 states. These services include the Life Recovery Bible, Bible studies, prayer correspondence, local jail ministry and aftercare services for local women. Patsy’s Place Transitional Home, a program of Sharing Hope Ministry, provides a safe and loving home where volunteers and mentors nurture post-offending women as they reenter our community. Their support and teaching of life skills helps prepare each woman for a productive life outside of prison. The Lucille and Leo Caiafa, Jr. Center for Advancement is the newest program of Sharing Hope Ministry with a vision to equip women in the community to be productive members of society, achieve their potential, and lead self-sufficient lives through education, empowerment, and encouragement. The Lucille and Leo Caiafa Jr. Center for Advancement serves local women through educational & life skills class and workshops including a Basic Skills Computer Class and GED classes. The Center for Advancement also provides local at-risk women with food, clothing and hygiene items through the emergency pantry.
