purpose

 

The purpose of the home is three fold:

 

  • 1. To provide a Godly Christian home for needy boys and girls.
  • 2. To win boys and girls to a saving knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.
  • 3. To teach and train boys and girls to grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.

 

We purpose to cultivate a love for the Bible and a walk with the Lord. Our goal is to develop the whole child.

 

The Bible tells us

"And Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and man." -- Luke 2:52:

Our desire is for each child to develop academically (wisdom), physically (stature), spiritually (favor with

God) and socially (favor with man).

 

Every child accepted to the Home is placed in either Bellwood Christian Academy or Franklin Road Christian School, depending on the individual needs of the child.  All efforts are being made to insure that the children are accepted and are proud of the place where they grew up.
