Mission

Serenity Pastoral Counseling, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) corporation with a mission to provide professional, pastoral counseling to our clients, without regard for the clients ability to pay for services.

990-EZ for the year ended December 31, 2025

Program accomplishments

  • In 2025, we were able to provide more than 1100 hours of counseling to more than 58 clients. More than 44 percent of our hours were completed with those benefited by our Client Assistance Fund and sliding scale. We have maintained the highest levels of accountability in our funding by keeping separate accounts for operations and Client Assistance, with donations only going into the Client Assistance Fund and once-monthly withdrawals to fund the individual counseling needs of our clients. All other fees and bills flow through the operating account. Our board of directors has been active in helping to build our non-profit through individual fund-raising efforts, personal contributions, and the donation of their professional services. As our fifth full year of operations proceeds, we are moving forward with the intent to help each client who comes to us with his or her counseling needs, leaving each with healing and hope.
