What is the Single Parent Family Ministry?

The Single Parent Family Ministry of Houston's First provides an environment for you and your family to grow spiritually in your walk with the Lord. A central part of why we meet is to provide a support system and healthy environment for people facing common situations and hurdles. It is a safe place where you can know and be known, serve and be served, love and be loved, celebrate and be celebrated!

What to expect…

Whether you see yourself first a single or first as a parent…or just don’t know where you fit…we have a place for you! You will be embraced and brought into a community and loved like family! Choose from one of two Single Parent Life Bible Study classes listed below in the Growing Our Souls section.
