New Life Children’s Center provides a safe, nurturing home for girls ages 11–17 who have endured trauma, abuse, or other major crises, recognizing that such harm stands in direct opposition to God’s purpose for creation. Many of the girls arrive with no prior relationship with God. The ministry is dedicated to offering spiritual hope and guidance, introducing each girl to the loving God who desires their healing through a relationship with Jesus Christ. Through its Spiritual Care Program, New Life generates meaningful opportunities for the girls to connect with God, including chapel services regularly led by local Lutheran pastors, creative art projects, music activities, counseling, and Bible studies. This mission grant will supply essential materials and Bible study resources.
Dear Jesus, please be with the Spiritual Care Team at New Life Center. Guide them in wisdom and care for each hurting girl living at the New Life Center. You know what each girl needs to promote healing. Provide what is needed through the witness of your love and your Gospel of saving grace. Let their spiritual needs be met and heal their hearts, bodies, and souls through this program. In your name we pray. Amen.
