The children at The Children’s Village at Christian City live like your own family—but our family is much larger. Our children still enjoy home cooked meals, family game nights, and devotional time together. There is one main difference between your family and our Children’s Village family; our house parents are taking care of eight children plus their own. Imagine cooking with two ovens because one is too small or using industrial size pots because you have to cook enough food for ten or more people. They do laundry with two washers and dryers because the amount of laundry a week would be overwhelming with only one washer and dryer. Christian City is thankful that we have loving and dedicated house parents that make an impact in our kids’ lives.

You can help make a difference in these kids’ lives, and by giving as little as a dollar a day, you can be the change these kids need in their lives.

Family at The Children's Village
Monday, October 26, 2009
A Warm & Loving Home Environment
From the moment children arrive at "The Children’s Village at Christian City," they are surrounded by a loving home setting where they can bond together with other children of similar backgrounds and situations. These are homes where they learn to interact both spiritually and socially with peers and loving house parents. They attend the same schools, participate in extra-curricular activities, go to church together, do homework together, and learn to make unique contributions to their family.

We are seeking a married couple who is interested in a long-term commitment in caring for children ages 5-17 years in a residential setting.

Both parents must be at least 25 years of age, have experience in working with children or parenting, and hold a high school diploma or GED certificate (although college and professional training is preferred). Both parents must successfully complete a criminal records background check, drug screening, finger-printing, and motor vehicles check. There is a non-smoking requirement as well.

Football Fun at The Children's Village
The children at The Children’s Village enjoyed family time during a cookout with all of the cottages. During the cookout, the kids played fun NFL football games. The children really enjoyed having everyone together enjoying food and each other. This was a great event for them because the kids have all been working so hard during school; it was a fun event to reward them for all their hard work during school.
