Remembering Our Founder

Our Founder, Teri Gant, came from a background of poverty, dysfunction, low self worth, low self esteem, depression and abuse. She accepted Jesus into her life and heart at the age of 24, but continued to battle with depression for years.

After completely surrendering her life to the Lord, in a deeper way than ever before, the Lord touched her life in a powerful way. Completely healing her in her body, spirit, mind and emotions. After spending a year seeking His face, The Father’s Heart was birthed, and the Lord set her feet firmly in the direction of touching and serving other hurting and depressed people.

On January 1st, 2017 our precious founder, friend and lover of Jesus went to be with her heavenly Father. Those of us that remain are committed to continuing the great work that she began. It’s with honor and love that we dedicate this page to the memory of Teri and her great legacy.

Our Mission

We share the love of Christ as demonstrated in the Word of God to transform the lives of hurting, lonely, hopeless and addicted people to be His Hands and Feet Extended in Love.

We see The Father’s Heart as a safe refuge, where those struggling with homelessness can rest, shower, sleep, eat a warm meal and rest in the peaceful presence of the Lord.
