Our Mission

Restoration House exists to provide Home, Hope, and Healing for young women ages 18–24 who are transitioning into independent adulthood.

Through safe housing, life-skills development, and supportive relationships, we help young women build a strong foundation for the future.

Our Story

Hello!

Restoration House of Northern Michigan began with Carol VanRandwyk Frazier's desire to make a difference in the lives of girls and women impacted by abuse, neglect, and trauma. Because of her own painful history, Carol has a heart for these women.

Her husband, Tom Frazier, shares and supports her vision and loves to restore older homes. When the Fraziers discovered an 8-bedroom historic home for sale in Northern Michigan, God knit their passions together into the dream of opening the Restoration House ministry.

Building the Team

We're not here to follow trends—we're here to build something timeless. With a blend of creativity, strategy, and heart, we help ideas come to life.

  • Building the Team

    The Fraziers bought the home in January 2021 and began making needed repairs. They also asked their church in Lansing, Michigan, to help them organize a formal ministry. The Restoration House of Northern Michigan Board was formed in December 2021 and elected officers in February 2022. This enthusiastic group then began taking active steps toward designing and launching the ministry. 

    The Fraziers and the Restoration House of Northern Michigan Board have focused on repairing the house for future occupation, bringing it up to code, and researching similar ministries in other communities.
