Welcome to the Carpenter's House, a place of spiritual hospitality for building relationships with God. We offer space and support for:
Discernment
Discernment is exploring wants and needs in ways that lead to energy, focus, and commitment. We help identify how God is present and working in that process.
Creativity
God offers freedom to explore and define who we are. Accepting our belovedness empowers us. Jesus provides a model of discernment that encourages us.
Trust
Trust is cultivated with openness to God’s invitations and one's experiences. This challenge is made easier when nurturing faithful hospitality in deeper ways.
Presence
We believe in presence that facilitates and catalyzes growth. Our prayer is "Come, Holy Spirit, come" and "Come guest, come host; bring all of you and welcome all."
As of October 2017, I am no longer offering supports through the Carpenter's House. However, I hope this website is of help as you seek, discern, listen, explore...whatever the best word is!
For groups offering similar spiritual supports, try HERE. You might also check out the Briggs Center for Faith and Action (the organization that has sponsored the Carpenter's House ministry).
With prayers for what you want and need,
Yonce Shelton
