Precious Life Shelter

Precious Life Shelter Precious Life Shelter, founded in 1988, was developed to meet an ever-growing need to provide shelter for pregnant women who are homeless.

Precious Life Shelter is an emergency, transitional, and single parent efficiency program providing a safe environment for the pregnant woman with no place to live. The program was designed to address the physical, emotional and spiritual needs of women preparing to meet the future challenges of supporting a family. Our programs include career planning, life skills development, health and nutritio

n education instruction in childbirth and parenting, and weekly case management. Professional counseling and drug diversion and counseling are provided, off-site, as needed. The goal of Precious Life Shelter is for each woman to regain stability and become self-reliant.

Two very special faces in the history and heart of Precious Life Shelter: Don and Theresa Sherrin.

Don and Theresa had a deep love for life and a heart for mothers in crisis. They believed every life was precious and that every mother deserved to be surrounded with love and support.

That belief helped shape a mission that continues more than 37 years later.

Today, Precious Life Shelter continues to walk alongside mothers and their babies, providing a safe place to call home and support as they work toward a brighter future for their families.

We know so many of you knew and loved Don and Theresa, and we would love to hear your memories of them.

But when you take a moment to look back, you may realize just how many steps you’ve taken and how far you’ve come.

As we begin a new week, take a moment to appreciate the progress you’ve already made and keep moving forward.

Have a blessed week!

Progress doesn’t always look the same for everyone. Sometimes it’s a big milestone, and sometimes it’s simply taking one more step forward.

Whatever progress looks like for you right now, take a moment to recognize how far you’ve come.

Keep going.

There’s so much worth celebrating along the way.

Look how far one small beginning can grow!

The house in the first photo is still part of Precious Life Shelter today!

The original home was moved farther back on the property and expanded, including the addition of a second story. Today, it is home to our main office and emergency shelter.

It may look different now, but it remains part of the mission that began all those years ago.

More than 35 years later, that mission continues to grow, one mother and one baby at a time.

A little throwback to where it all started!

This photo takes us back to 2007 and the beginning of what has become such a special event for Precious Life Shelter.

This September, we’ll tee off for the 20th time, continuing a tradition that has brought people together year after year in support of the mothers and babies we serve.
We’d love to have you be part of year 20.

Moving forward doesn’t always happen in big leaps. For the mothers we serve, sometimes it’s one decision, one step, and one day at a time.

At Precious Life Shelter, we’re here to walk alongside them as they work toward a more stable and independent future for themselves and their babies.

Sometimes, the next step is enough.
