Mission

In His Hands Children's Home is organized to provide children a safe environment to live, to be encouraged, to heal, to grow, to learn life skills and for us to share the love of Jesus.

Our vision is to provide a safe haven for children in need, where kids can learn life skills and about the love of Jesus Christ; where children can go forward with an enriched life remembering that we are backing them in prayer and support.

About

There are over 13,000 children in the foster care system in the State of Texas. The Department of Family and Protective Services often has children in an office just waiting on a bed to be available for placement, and siblings are often separated.

In His Hands Children's Home contracts with Child Protective Services to take girls on emergency or non-emergency basis and provides a safe environment for as long as a child is needing placement.

One of our primary goals is to keep sisters together!!

If there's one thing most of the girls who come to us have in common, it is a lack of childhood. They haven't had the experiences that create lasting memories, or the framework for a happy future. We are so thankful that we can give them a childhood and so many unique memories.

Meet The Team

We've got an amazing team of leaders helping us serve the girls who enter our home.
