On behalf of the Executive Board of the Shirley J. Sheares Men's A.M.E. Empowerment Center, we simply want to say... thank you.

Thank you to every person who lifts this ministry up in prayer. Thank you to those who continue to give, volunteer, donate, partner with us, and serve our community with compassion and love. Every prayer whispered, every gift given, and every act of kindness helps us make a difference in the lives of the men we serve.

God is doing a great work through this ministry, and we know none of it would be possible without His grace and faithful supporters like you.

Please continue praying for our guests, our staff, our volunteers, and the vision God has entrusted to us. The work continues, lives are being transformed, and the best is still ahead.

"Let us not grow weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up." — Galatians 6:9

More Than a Shelter. An Empowerment Center.
A Hand Up, Not Just a Handout. 💜
