| Description: | Our mission is to provide a loving, wholesome Christian home for children who are separated from their parents for one reason or another, and to help them establish long-term relationships with stable parental figures. The basic goal is to provide for the emotional, social, physical, educational, and spiritual support for the children, so they may learn to manage their own affairs along with maximizing the development of their potential, abilities and interests. The ultimate goal is to facilitate a child's development to voluntarily leave the Home and function within a community environment in a style that is both meaningful and purposeful to himself or herself, as well as the community |

Once a child has been placed, he/she must live at our Home for a minimum of one year and may stay as long as they like - even through college.
