About The Caring People
The Caring People care about Single Moms. Specifically, we train and equip Caring Women from the church in mentoring Single Moms in small group settings called, “Care Groups.”
Our Mission
When you change the life of a Single Mom; you change her children’s lives as well. We’ve seen restoration and hearts healed from difficult circumstances many Single Moms experience. The ultimate goal is to disciple Single Moms. It’s our prayer they bring other Single Moms to a relationship with the Lord, find a home church, and prosper.
History
The family business, Herschend Family Entertainment, owns and operates wonderful theme parks and entertainment attractions. But our founder, the late, JoDee Herschend knew God had a specific task for her.
JoDee Herschend
Founder
JoDee turned her sights on impacting families, led by Single Moms. She created a small group ministry model which equips Caring Women in mentoring Single Moms. After gathering a team of trusted advisors in marketing and discipleship, JoDee and her team launched “CARE GROUPS.”
Care Groups partner Single Moms and Caring Women together weekly over a meal, discussion and often…laughter, too. Dramatic outcomes in the lives of Single Moms occur when relying on God’s word and, in sharing burdens with each other. The model is being planted now in churches across the United States.
We invite you to join with us in this life changing mission, touching the lives of Single Moms in a real and tangible way. Voulnteers are needed to grow Care Groups across the United States.
