I am pregnant and in need of a place to stay. How do I get help through Mater Filius?

Our Services
We provide more than shelter and food. We provide the ability to rise above devastating, negative elements and achieve job-readiness and self-sustainability.
Mater Filius taught me how to be a mother and an independent woman. I also learned how to love myself and see myself as a child of God. I do not know what my life would be like without Mater Filius.

After Birth Care

What Sets Us Apart

Announcements
Commit to a year of service living in our home as we work to cultivate a house of hospitality for pregnant and parenting women formerly experiencing homelessness. While serving a year on mission, you’ll have the opportunity to grow in the Catholic faith, while working alongside a tight knit community striving to create a safe haven for mom’s in the greater Cincinnati area. We seek to put our Pro-Life values into action by creating a communal environment for mom’s and their babies to rest, heal, and grow. Through friendship, empowerment, and encouragement, we work to walk with women to build strong families, and healthy communities. There are 3 mission staff roles that open annually with one year term from July - July.
Thank you for prayerfully considering to join our team of missionaries.
