Grace Haven
A pastoral care expression of Alabaster Heart Ministries,
created especially for pastors’ wives and those in ministry leadership.
You spend your life pouring out — this space and our gatherings exist so you can be poured into.
Come as you are. Rest awhile. Breathe. Be Refreshed.
Welcome
Grace Haven was born from a simple but deeply meaningful realization: those who pour out week after week also need a place to be poured into.
Behind every church service, ministry event, and leadership responsibility are people who are quietly carrying both joy and weight. Grace Haven exists to offer a space where pastors’ wives and ministry leaders can lay down those burdens, be encouraged, encounter the restoring presence of God, and be sent back out with restored joy and renewed hope in the callings God has entrusted them with.
This is not a place to lead. It is a place to receive.
Our Heart
A Place of Rest and Renewal
Grace Haven is designed to be a gentle refuge — a space of spiritual rest, encouragement, and meaningful connection for women walking the unique path of ministry life.
We understand that ministry can be both deeply meaningful and quietly demanding. Grace Haven provides a setting where you don’t have to explain the complexities of your role. You are met with understanding, care, and shared faith.
Here, you are not defined by your responsibilities, but welcomed as a beloved child of God.
What We Value
Presence Over Performance
Grace Haven gatherings are unhurried and prayerful, creating room for women to encounter God personally rather than simply attend another event.
Safe & Honoring Community
We cultivate environments marked by trust, gentleness, and respect, where women can share openly and be encouraged without pressure.
Scripture-Centered Encouragement
Everything we offer flows from God’s Word and points women back to the sustaining presence of Christ.
Rest for the Weary
Grace Haven honors the need for spiritual and emotional rest, reminding women that stepping away is not selfish — it is sacred.
How Grace Haven Expresses Itself
Grace Haven takes shape through a variety of gatherings and touch points throughout the year, including:
• Intimate gatherings for pastors’ wives and
ministry leaders
• Retreat experiences such as Chosen
• Special evenings of encouragement, such as His
Beloved and others
• Relational connection points for prayer and
support
Each gathering is prayerfully designed to strengthen your heart, renew your spirit, and remind you that you are not walking this road alone.
One Root. Same Heart
Grace Haven flows from the same spiritual foundation as Alabaster Heart Ministries but serves a distinct and specific audience. While Alabaster Heart gatherings are open to all women, Grace Haven offers protected, pastoral-care-focused spaces for those serving in ministry leadership roles.
Together, they share one heart, to see lives gently restored in the presence of God.
A Holy Invitation
If you are a pastor’s wife or a woman serving in ministry leadership and find yourself in need of encouragement, rest, or simply a place to exhale, Grace Haven was created with you in mind.
You are seen. You are valued. And there is a place for you here.
