Innovators of Ministry to Troubled Youth. Ed and Gloria Shipman both trusted Christ during high school. They met at CBC and were married in 1954. In 1974 they opened their home to shelter two runaway teenage girls. From that, grew a vision to minister to troubled children. In 1975 Happy Hill Farm Academy/Home was born. Today, it is a fully-accredited, 500-acre treatment facility designed to give children the individual attention and love they so desperately need. Ed passed away in 2016.
