The Sheepfold opened its doors to thousands of homeless, abused and forsaken women with children in Orange County in 1979. Recognizing that only God can heal a wounded soul, change pain and suffering into strength, and provide determination to overcome, a desire to know God through His Word is the only requisite to come into their shelters.
By easing the pain of homeless and abused women and their children, and restoring their sense of value and self-worth, the Sheepfold team is able to lead them through a six-month program. The goal of this program is to find employment and establish them in their own apartment, ready for independent living. During their stay at their shelter, coupled with the non-denominational Bible teachings, they receive everything they need free of charge. This includes things such as home cooked meals, new clothes, all hygiene supplies, children and infant supplies, subsidized childcare, transportation and much, much more.
The Sheepfold welcomes individuals, families and community groups to come together and volunteer and assist with childcare, in their thrift shop, lead Bible stories and workshops for both mothers and children.
