helping the kids at His House
during Christmas
The Holidays is a time for healing, peace, love and hope. For children in foster care who have experienced the worst of the pandemic, it will mean that much more.
What do the Holidays mean
to children in Foster Care
At His House, Thanksgiving and Christmas are very special for children experiencing anxiety and sadness during what should be an otherwise happy and joyous time for children. For many children living at His House, the Holiday experience they have with us is the first of many first experiences.
It is the first time they sit down as a family and enjoy a home-cooked hot meal sitting at a table joined in prayer and love; the first time they not only receive their first Christmas gift but one that is unique to them. The first time they may not only have a Christmas tree but actually be around others who love and care for them as they decorate it and put up the Christmas star or angel. It is through these special intimate times where they can truly experience the spirit of the holidays therefore creating positive memories.
What can I do?
Through your kind and generous spirit of sharing your time, talent and treasure, we have created several exciting opportunities for you to make Christmas special for our children particularly during this pandemic.
