Family Renewal Shelter - About FRS

What Our Mission Means to Us

Family Renewal Shelter is a Christian humanitarian organization dedicated to bringing healing hope and a new life to victims of domestic violence.

Family Renewal Shelter was founded in 1986 by 2 dedicated Christian women, Beverly Harrison and Barbara Nixon, to provide a secure place for domestic violence victims to be safe and have a chance to pursue a whole new life. To be a Christian humanitarian organization means first to love God, then people, which is shown through our compassionate services to those in greatest need. Offering healing hope and a new life highlights our long-term commitment to those who now have a chance to find peace and choose a life worth living. We try to practice this simple principle: "Preach the Gospel and when necessary use words". We love people without conditions, requirements or expectations. As a result we believe much good fruit has been and will continue to be borne through our efforts and partnerships with everyone of good will working to eliminate domestic violence in our world.
