Shepherd's Rest
"A Unique Opportunity for You, Your Family, & Your Church!"
The Opportunity
Shepherd's Rest is a ministry extended from our family and homestead. (For a bit about our name, click here.)
Could You Use Some Proven Guidance For Marriage & Family?
-Marriage Issues?- We have worked with couples for over 20 years in ministry, providing counseling, teaching, and hospitality. Let us share proven, practical, guidance which can bring hope and direction!
-Child-Rearing?- From infants to teenagers! There are sound, Biblical answers to your practical questions about discipline, personalities, responding to trying situations, and molding a child into a mature, responsible young man or woman...
-Family Matters?- The influences of society, extended family, changing seasons of life, busy lifestyles, etc., all have impact upon us and our loved ones. How do we make wise decisions? How do we deal with past hurts? We can offer sound perspectives and practices which may help!
Are you in the ministry? We may be able to encourage you, your family, and your church members. Please click here.

Our family musicians will encourage you and uplift your spirit!
"Thank you for blessing us with song and word. We all had a great time. Your ministry and fellowship will have a lasting impression on us all. God bless you in all you do for Him!"--Pastor, FBC
"It is difficult to express in words the heartfelt appreciation for your love and ministry of our Lord. All the services yesterday were uplifting for me and although all Sundays are special, I had prayed that the Lord would honor us in such a way with His presence that we would sense His pleasure in our worship. To conclude the day's services with your family's ministry, and that time together with Jeremy's presentation filled all of us to overflowing."--Music Minister, FBC
We have violinist/fiddler, piano, guitar, harmonica, flute, banjo, mandolin, and bass fiddle players in the family. Let us show you how live, non-electric music can be refreshing, wholesome, and even 'cleansing'! They can play gospel, hymns, classical, sacred, folk and bluegrass styles. We have found that senior adults, especially, and just about anyone who needs a break from frantic, fast-paced modern lifestyles, really enjoy this!

-Are You Looking For Something Wholesome & Family-Friendly?- Located in a small, two-store, two-church, bank and post office, farming community in North Mississippi, we offer a convenient, yet peaceful (and even romantic!) change of pace. Our available guesthouse (limited availability--please call) can be an ideal place to 'escape'.
The guesthouse is completely furnished, has three bedrooms, a full kitchen, vaulted ceiling, stone fireplace, and large covered porch with white rockers and swing overlooking the pond and pasture where our stallion grazes. The house sleeps eight comfortably.

Why Consider Us?
We've been told that our family has been an encouragement to many a dad and mom. We are indeed grateful for the opportunities to minister, and we can humbly share those things which have helped us with the anticipation that they will help you, too!
