Methodist Home for Children

At Methodist Home for Children, they provide safe, stable homes where children can thrive and live to their full, God-given potential. While not always traditional, an MHC home is where children and families are equipped to succeed. They build on strengths, nurturing hopes and goals, and prepare all in their care to shape their own futures.

A Disciple Making & Peace Building Ministry

Methodist Home for Children works to bring peace and stability to children, youth, and families who have mostly known abuse, neglect, and hardship. They use a model of care that is rooted in the principles of love, peace, and grace to help those in their care write a different story – a story that is full of hope, peace, and love of self and neighbor.
