Powerhouse Ministries
Powerhouse Ministries is a non-profit serving families and individuals in crisis with love and mercy. They are committed to strengthening all aspects of individual and family life in the neighborhoods God has called us to serve. Some of the people we minister to are families of prisoners at Folsom State Prison, but most are just men and women dealing with ordinary, difficult and painful life events: the loss of a job or home, drug and alcohol abuse, divorce and lack of child care or transportation.
