Sparrow Ministries

Mission

Home for destitute and terminally ill adults and children with aids.

It is the mission of Sparrow Ministries to provide care and comfort to adults and children who have been infected or affected by the HIV/AIDS pandemic. We are both a Hospice for the terminally ill and a Children’s Home for those vulnerable children who have become homeless due to the death of one or both of their parents. Our ministry is one of health and hope.

Founder

Sparrow was founded by Rev. Corine McClintock in 1992.

The Story Behind It

After a long and successful career as a nurse, Corine needed something else in her life. She asked God to show her a path. It was no coincidence that the reality of AIDS was becoming more and more evident just at the time that Corine was searching for her next challenge. She took in three men who were dying of AIDS. She provided them with care, comfort and support. Before too long, she realized what she must do and founded Sparrow Ministries. Since that time, Sparrow has grown to an organization that currently cares for over 225 children and 80 adults.
