ABOUT ANN DOWNING MINISTRIES

Downing Ministries, Inc. is a 501c3 non-profit, tax exempt corporation and exists to provide those with a shared vision for the work in which we are involved to participate in a tangible way.

For over forty-three years, Ann Downing has been faithful to the call God placed on her life as a young girl to sing gospel music all over the world. In the late 80's Ann's ministry expanded into the realm of speaking at the encouragement of one of her mentors, Florence Littauer, well-known author and speaker. Being in music ministry full time, Ann continues to work each weekend in order to bring in the necessary funds to fulfill her ministry's budget. At times, enough comes in, but many times, it does not, so outsider financial supporter has been a vital part of keeping Ann's music and ministry going strong.

Downing Ministries oversees three major projects in addition to supporting Ann's music/speaking career. The "Ms. Lillie Project" formed in 2006 in tribute to Ann's mother to minister to nursing home residents in supplying them with Gaither Homecoming videos, dvd players, televisions, etc. More information about this project can be found on the Ms. Lillie Project page.

Middle Tennessee Women's Retreat is an annual event that occurs in the spring. The event began in 1992 as the dream of Ann and her husband Paul. Downing Ministries supplements the registration fees paid by attendees to cover the expense of hosting an event of this caliber. More info about this year's retreat can be found on Ann's Retreat page.

To help with these projects and to help support the ministry's budget, your gifts to Downing Ministries are tax deductible for income tax purposes and receipts are provided at the end of the year.

Your gifts will help Ann continue her ministry as well as expand in these projects very dear to her heart.
