Blessed by our Faithful Friends

March 6, 2019

The mission of Methodist Children’s Home is to offer hope to children, youth and families through a nurturing, Christian community. For many residential youth at MCH, the Christmas season can be emotionally challenging as many are spending the holiday away from their families for the first time. However, MCH understands these children need to be shown grace and love. Youth are reminded of the true meaning of Christmas and are able to take in holiday experiences that are meant to build childlike anticipation and joy throughout the season.
