       United In Him Empowerment Center

The facility will be located near Twin Canal and will begin with a discipleship program where we will teach 12 women the importance of fitness and nutrition, money management, life skills development, child care and enrichment, and how to walk in the power of the Holy Spirit.  During this 52 day life transformation course, they will receive one-on-one mentoring to finish their GED, training to enhance their work skills, and encouragement to discover the purpose for which God created them.  Upon completion of the course, we will help them to find employment and child care will be provided for a reduced rate at the Empowerment Center.
