About MFHM

My Father’s House Mission (MFHM – homeless shelter) is in the middle of upgrading safety features at their Springfield facility on 10th Ave E.  MAP but they have received temporary authorization from the State Fire Marshal’s Office to open as an “Emergency Cold Weather Shelter” due to the current extreme cold weather conditions.

The location of the Shelter is 101 10th Ave E, Springfield, TN MAP, and is directly behind Southside Drugstore. The Shelter has separate sleeping areas for men and women. Sorry, no pets are allowed.

MFHM is a non-profit organization that utilizes volunteers and donations to operate. If you can assist in donating any of the following, it would be appreciated:

Food for a light breakfast (something that can be heated in a microwave, cereal, fruit, pastries, juice, milk, etc.)
Food for a light lunch (lunch meat, bread, cheese, soup, chili, hot dogs, condiments, etc.)

Prepare a hot dinner, bring it to the Shelter and if you can stay to assist in serving the guests, that would be appreciated.

We are anticipating 10-12 of our displaced population each night. If you volunteer to bring a hot dinner, you can call the Shelter at (615) 992-1547 and MFHM will provide you with the number they are currently feeding each night. In addition, if you can volunteer your time, whether it is for 3 hours or overnight, please call the number above and inquire as to the current need for volunteers. If you have never volunteered at the Shelter, when possible, you will be paired up with an experienced volunteer to provide you on-the-job-training.

We need volunteers in the following positions:

Prepare an evening meal and deliver to the Shelter by 5:45 pm.
Provide a devotional after the evening meal, 10-15 minutes in length.

Perform fire watch duties for a three-hour window (walk the bldg.. every 30 minutes to ensure that no fires or fire hazards exist)
Serve as a chaperone. We require at least two chaperones at all times, preferably one male and one female.

MFHM is proud to be the hands and feet of Christ in our community.

Community Medical Equipment Ministry – White House Church of Christ 

White House Church of Christ located at 205 Spring St., White House, TN would like to announce our new Medical Equipment Ministry created to serve the Sumner County and Robertson County communities.

The Medical Equipment Ministry loans medical equipment Free of Charge to those in need on a short or long-term basis.

We saw a need in our community to aid caregivers and patients with medical equipment to assist in home health care and increase rehab success.

We provide equipment on a first-come, first-served basis. Some equipment and items currently available are lift chairs, wheelchairs, scooters, walkers, potty seats, shower chairs, hospital beds, and more.

We also accept cash donations or good-used equipment.

We have limited delivery services; however, for those who are unable to pick up, please call our office, and make an appointment.

It was rewarding to us, as well as the person donating, to be able to provide a hydraulic patient lift to a family with a special need’ s little girl. With this lift, grandparents will be able to help with her care; thus, freeing up time for the parents. Also, we received a call from a woman whose father was being released from rehab early with 2 broken hips and 3 broken ribs. The insurance company would only provide a wheelchair. We were able to provide her with all the equipment needed for his rehab and care.

If you need equipment, the process is simple. Please come by and fill out an information form.
