Welcome to Juniper Tree
A place of comfort, restoration, and hope
You are not here by accident. Perhaps the name drew you in. Perhaps someone you trust referred you. Or perhaps you are walking through a difficult season and quietly seeking help. Whatever brought you here, I believe this moment has been guided by the loving hand of God.

THE STORY BEHIND OUR NAME
Why the Name “Juniper Tree”?
After a great spiritual victory over the prophets of Baal, Elijah fled for his life from Queen Jezebel (1 Kings 19, KJV). Exhausted, overwhelmed, and deeply discouraged, he found himself alone in the wilderness under a solitary juniper tree. There, in one of Scripture’s most honest moments, he cried out to God in despair.
Under that tree — in his lowest moment — God met him.
God provided rest. God sent nourishment. God restored Elijah’s strength and renewed his purpose. Juniper Tree, the organization, draws its name and mission from this profound biblical encounter: illustrating how, in times of deep discouragement or trauma, one can find comfort, restoration, and hope under God’s sheltering care.
“He lay down and slept under a juniper tree: and an angel touched him and said, ‘Get up and eat.’”
