Discovering Peace of Mind

Her husband was back. It was the middle of the night, and Sara* felt her heart begin pounding with anxiety. As he tore her out of bed, she thought about the blanket she hid outside. No phone, no one else awake, just darkness. Once he locked that door, there was nothing she could do.

TESTIMONIALS & FEEDBACK

I am so excited to see an organization like yours. As a young girl, my grandfather abused me, and I have always wished there had been a way for me to call out for help.

I am afraid that one day soon the children will wake up and find their mom dead on the floor. If you can help in any way, I would be so thankful.

Thank you Watchful Shepherd for giving us the monitor… its been helping our daughter sleep better. It helps alleviate her anxiety and stress at night knowing she has a safer environment.
