Peace House Ministries Helping Women To Grow With The Lord

Many of us roam through our lives, wondering just what God has in mind for us. Well, Patty Bultmon isn’t one of those people. After coming close to death in 2007, Patty asked the Lord for instructions for the remainder of her life. She asked Him to make it perfectly clear, and what she was to do in her short time left here on Earth.  Patty explains, “I greatly desire to do all that He wants of me, and not to waste a minute of the precious time I am given. 

She adds, “Only through the grace and mercy of God am I here today.” She studied God's Word and stood on the verse in Jeremiah 29:11-13 "For I know the plans I have for you,” says the Lord.  “They are plans for good and not evil, to give you a future and a hope.  In those days when you pray, I will listen, You will find me when you seek me, if you look for me in earnest."

She says that she is humbled at the thought that God might actually allow her to work for Him.  The Word of God has all the answers. 

Patty knew that she had to do his will and writing a book to help people seemed to come first. Together with a friend, Patty wrote “Common Threads.” The second book in the series will soon be published.

In addition to writing, Patty studied and became a certified Christian Counselor and the founder of Peace House Ministries, which offers women hope and comfort through Jesus Christ.  The Counseling/Life-coaching is part of "Peace House Ministries". If you or someone you know needs someone to talk to or pray with who will use the Bible to guide us to the Healer, Our Lord, I am willing. I know that I can do nothing apart from Him. I pray and ask God to use me. He will heal the lost and broken-hearted and comfort those in need. My prayer is: "Lord, I am Yours to do Your will; give me Your eyes and Your compassion, in Jesus' name." Patty is joined by her close friend, Patty Lahey, in this ministry.

Peace House is not a home where girls or children live. It is a place where they learn about living a life pleasing to Jesus. It is a retreat center, a Bibles Study place, a life skills place, a place filled with the love of the Lord! Where all women are welcome and encouraged to come, for prayer, learning, for hope and encouragement.

The previous owners of this grand 101 year old home were Tim and yes, the “other” Patty and they called and offered the house for sale to us as they wanted it to be a Peace House, as they had watched our ministry at work over the past few years. It was a God Thing! It has been miracle after miracle ever since. God is faithful to never leave us, and He has proven His love for us through His amazing healing and peace which can only happen through a personal relationship with Jesus.

Patty ads, “We have totally re-done the house, the big changes are to the front of the house, we added the porch!. The inside has been totally re done as well, just updating mostly. God has brought donations and gifts that are perfect for the house, you can’t imagine that it was all gifted, when you see it, it looks like a decorator picked it all out, God loves beauty!! It is so full of peace that you feel it as you enter! So many have made that comment!”

The retreats are for specific topics. One for those who want more of Jesus, called Going deeper; one for the abused; one is for those who have aborted a child; one is for those who have gone thru a divorce; one is a purity retreat for young girls; and many more to come. After attending a Bible study for weeks the ladies are rewarded with an overnight stay (retreat). It is exciting what God is doing!

We will host an intimate retreat for groups wanting to experience Jesus and His love. Full of prayer and pampering. The home is also available for small groups to host a tea or meeting.

We got possession of the house September 1, 2013, but we had been able to begin to paint and re-do a bit, prior to that. There is also a guest house quarters.

We are wildly working to finish the house by the open house dates, Oct 24-27.

God is at work and we are privileged and humbled to join Him. We want women of all ages to realize His amazing love for them. Both Patty's have experienced His love, His grace and His truth and we want to share it with everyone we meet! Matthew 9:36-38 When He (Jesus) saw the crowds, He had compassion on them, because they were harassed and helpless, like sheep without a shepherd. Then He said to His disciples,

"The harvest is plentiful but the workers are few." Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out the workers into His harvest field.

Since Patty Lahey has joined this ministry we have a two fold mission. One, Patty Bultman’s mission is to help those wanting to get their lives directed to the plan that Jesus has for them. Patty’s personal past of painful sin and its consequences, and healing after finding the love of Jesus. Two; Patty Lahey’s mission is to guide those who love the Lord and want more of God’s Word; becoming disciples and to do more but don’t know where to begin. All from her personal life of doing all” the Church” things but not having the deep, personal, intimate relationship with Jesus. This draws the two ministries together, those drawing ever closer to the Lord forming relationship with those who need mentors and to be loved by God’s people, all forming intimate relationships with Jesus. It is God’s perfect plan.

It is a place worth the wait,….it has been nearly 18 years since the Lord whisper to my spirit ”there will be a Peace House.” And all the years of God teaching and showing me exactly what He had planned. This house is far greater than I could have ever thought or imagined!

Blessed with two grown sons, Patty lives in Hugoton, Kansas with her husband and love-of-her-life, Alan.  Patty enjoys interior design and facilitating Bible studies. 

She openly shares her life story with anyone who will listen; a life quite unexplainable without God's intervention and salvation.

As part of her commitment to God, Patty also makes herself available to share her Christian testimony to women’s groups, civic groups, churches or “just about anyone who will listen.” She can be reached at her Hugoton phone, 620-428-2046.
