Assistance was provided for housing, medical, employment, language and schooling for the four children. Volunteers as well as monetary donations assisted the family in adapting to American life. This is a 24 hour crisis center which provides food, clothing, medical and psychological counseling for runaway, homeless or abused children through the age of 17 on a temporary basis. It presently has facilities for twelve children. Our church supports Anchor House financially and sponsors individual cyclists on their annual bike ride.
Care is taken to maximize profits to benefit the skilled and needy craftspeople.
Slackwood Motel Project Families who are provided temporary housing live in motels on Route One in Lawrence. During the summer months, fun and educational programs are planned for the children who have minimal opportunity to participate in organized activities. An after school program offers tutoring for the children. Many neighborhood children do not have an organized environment with adult supervision where they can do their homework. In a time when churches in Trenton have been closing, we joyfully are supporting the growth of this new church development through a direct mission pledge.
