About Us
Blessing House is a children’s crisis care center, caring for children birth through 12, whose parents or caregivers are facing a crisis or emergency or who are experiencing a high level of stress that might put their children at risk of abuse or neglect.
Blessing House is open every day of the year and is staffed with trained employees who care for the children in a safe loving environment. We are licensed to care for up to 10 children at a time. We provide information and assistance to families to help them address their crisis.
Anyone can make a referral or request placement for their children at Blessing House. Placements depend on availability of space and the circumstances of the children and families. Families maintain custody of their children while they are at Blessing House.

"Let the Children Come to Me"
And he took them in his arms and blessed them . . .” (Mark 10:14-16)
The tenderness and care Jesus showed for children shows us how much God loves the small, the weak and the vulnerable. Today more than ever we are challenged to protect our children from abuse and the horror of violence that has become so prevalent.
Please join us as we pray for the protection of our children.
