It is with sadness and grateful hearts that Restoration Ministries announces the passing of our beloved co-founder, Barbara Sullivan.
Barbara, alongside her husband, John, helped establish Restoration Ministries and devoted her life to serving others. For decades, she was not only a beloved leader and volunteer, but a faithful friend and source of encouragement to countless people whose lives were touched by the ministry.
Barbara had a special heart for women experiencing homelessness and loved serving at our PADS Shelter for Women. She gave generously of her time, compassion, and talents, always seeking to bring hope, dignity, and encouragement to those in need.
A gifted author and teacher, Barbara used her words and wisdom to inspire others and share her faith. Her life reflected a deep love for God and a genuine desire to make a difference in the lives of those around her.
Her legacy lives on through Restoration Ministries, the programs she helped build, the lives she touched, and the many people who continue to carry forward the mission she and John began.
We are profoundly grateful for Barbara’s life, her faithful service, and the immeasurable impact she made on Restoration Ministries and our community.
Barbara will be lovingly remembered, and forever a part of the Restoration Ministries family.
