Single Moms Are Often Overwhelmed
Emotional Despair
Single moms often feel inadequate, judged, and isolated.
Parenting Difficulties
Parenting is a tough job in itself and when done alone, it is an enormous 24/7 task.
Financial Struggles
There is never enough money. Nearly half of single-mom households live below the poverty line.
Spiritual Emptiness
“So where is God?” “Why has this happened?” Carrying around anger, bitterness, and unforgiveness makes it hard to feel God’s love.

Meet The Leader
Linda Nesmith is a former single mom who felt God’s call to begin a ministry for single moms in the vicinity of her church, South Side Baptist Tabernacle, in Ypsilanti, Michigan. Her own journey drives her compassion for the struggles that single moms experience.
It is a hard job being a single mom, one that is often looked down upon because people judge that the mom has somehow done something wrong. And she may have. But that doesn’t change the enormity of her task of raising her children alone. Linda’s journey may be similar or very different. But the commonality is that all love their children and have found themselves alone. Linda wants to see every single mom feel connected, become a better parent, gain control of their finances, and grow spiritually.
Sample of our Curriculum
Our leader, Linda Nesmith, is certified through The Life of a Single Mom to teach the curriculum you see in this video. Each of our meetings will provide a short video lesson like this one followed by candid discussions and thought provoking “homework.”
