We have a great opportunity this year for our members to share the love of Christ with children and families this Christmas. The clients at the United Methodist Children’s home do not have the ability to buy gifts on their own and are in need of our help to make Christmas a special time for the children and families they serve.
There
are approximately 80 children in the foster care program and another 70
residents on our campus!! You can
donate from the general Wish List below.
Please make sure donated items are new, so that our families feel valued and are kept safe.

The Children’s Home works to heal children, unite families, and change lives. We place children into safe and loving foster care homes while helping to restore family relationships; prepare young adults in Georgia’s foster care system to make positive life decisions as they transition to independent adulthood; and strengthen and preserve families by providing housing and support to prevent homelessness. Our Mission is to restore children and families from trauma through Jesus Christ.
