We attempt to stay in relationship with the women who complete the program through personal and church interactions. In this year of discipleship, these women will have the opportunity not only to get a sustaining job, but also to enter training and education to improve their productivity in society. It is believed that this year of commitment will reduce prison recidivism and help these women to avoid falling back into addictions and homelessness. After a one year period, the women will graduate from the program and begin independent living. They will be accountable for the money they earn and how they succeed at work. After these months, the women will be helped to find a job during the day. They will not work during this time other than volunteering in helping others through the Heaven’s Harvest food bank. They will get counseling and spiritual training during the first six months. Sparrow House Ministry will feed, clothe and house these women at no cost to them.

Most of these women are coming out of a life of addiction, homelessness or out of incarceration. They follow a schedule throughout every day and night. These women live in a nice community home, rise to pray, eat, study scripture, work at their own care, receive counseling and serve others throughout the day.
