ABOUT SAFE PLACE MINISTRIES
OUR HISTORY
Safe Place Ministries was birthed from the very heart of God and entrusted to the compassionate leadership of Apostle Bobby E. Stapleton Jr. and First Lady Shirley Stapleton — a dynamic couple whose lives embody faith, purpose, and divine assignment.
What began as a whisper from heaven became a clarion call to create a refuge for the weary, the broken, and the searching. In obedience to the Spirit of God, Apostle Bobby and First Lady Shirley accepted their reassignment for such a time as this — to lead a ministry not confined by walls, but defined by love, healing, and restoration.
Safe Place Ministries stands as a beacon of hope for families, believers, and communities in need of transformation. Every message, outreach effort, and act of service flows from one purpose — to usher in the manifested presence of God and allow His power to change lives from the inside out.
This ministry is not simply a gathering place; it is a spiritual movement. Here, the hurting find healing, the lost find direction, and the believer finds renewed fire. Every worship experience invites the glory of God to dwell richly, bringing breakthrough, deliverance, and purpose to all who enter.
OUR CORE VALUES
At its core, Safe Place Ministries is built on five pillars of purpose:
-
Love – Demonstrating Christ’s unconditional love to all people.
-
Healing – Mending the broken through prayer, teaching, and compassion.
-
Restoration – Helping individuals and families rediscover their divine purpose.
-
Empowerment – Equipping believers to walk in victory and spiritual maturity.
-
Community – Partnering with local organizations to bring faith, safety, and transformation to neighborhoods in need.
These pillars serve as the spiritual framework of everything we do — guiding our worship, outreach, and commitment to creating environments where the presence of God reigns supreme and His people thrive.
OUR VISION
Our vision is to transform neighborhoods into thriving ecosystems where every individual has the opportunity to thrive. We strive to create a world where families are strong, youth are confident, and communities are vibrant, safe, and full of hope.
