Welcome to PKI aka Preacher's Kid's International

What is PKI? Glad you asked.

PKI is an ever growing community of people who grew up in the limelight of a minister's family.

Here you will find lots of information about what is happening including ministry events around the world and you can even see if there is an event planned nearby. Most if not all of these events are planned by fellow pk's just like yourself. You can find articles written by pk's that can offer insight insight into yourself so that as you read them you will think "how did they know that? That's describing me!"

This is a community that will meet the needs of you, the "preacher's kid". Did you think your experiences were unique and there is no way anyone could POSSIBLY understand what you went through? Guess what, you are not alone. Introduce yourself on the message boards and it probably won't be long before you find someone who has been through something very similar and who understands where you are coming from.

PKI is supported entirely by donation and there are no paid staff. Everyone involved in a pk. Items for sale such as pk t-shirts and books by pks help to pay for the costs  associated with the ministry. For that is what this is, a ministry to all the pk's out there. It is here for both those who are still hurting from their time in the limelight and for those who have healed. It is a community by you and for you so get involved. Write an article, organize an event, post on the message boards, it doesn't matter, just get involved.

Just remember PKI is here for YOU!

Preacher's kids not any different

"There has never been another person like me in the history of mankind, nor will there ever be. God has made me an original, one of a kind, a special person." - Robert McGee, author of "Search for Significance".

Despite a wealth of books, tapes and workshops designed to help build self-esteem, people struggle with finding their niche - some well into adulthood

Preachers' kids often fall into that category. A common complaint is that they must share their parents with thousands of other people, while trying to cope with scrutiny from congregants and the public.

Experts say preachers' kids are no different than other kids, but they do have a propensity toward certain pitfalls, such as setting unrealistic expectations for themselves or rebelling against their upbringing.
