Why It Matters

We Believe

We believe that all children
deserve a second chance


We believe in the healing
promise of God’s presence


We believe in providing a safe
environment, free from judgment


We believe children
aren’t disposable and are
worth our time and attention

We believe the children
we serve are more than the
worst thing they have done


We believe being there,
providing a ministry of
presence, is healing


We believe the calming
presence of our chaplains
reassures the children
that someone cares about
their spiritual well-being

I used to have a wall set up. No one’s coming. No one’s talking to me. I’m me. What you worried about me for? But it’s kinda slowly, brick by brick, coming down. Mike
