NEW LIFE CHILDREN’S HOME
“Where God is Changing Lives”
“Pure and undefiled religion before God and the Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their trouble, and to keep oneself unspotted from the world.” James 1:27
New Life Children’s Home is a home for neglected, abused, troubled and abandoned children. New Life Children’s Home (NLCH) opened its doors in April of 2009. Since that time, NLCH has brought a community together. Many businesses, neighbors, churches, individuals as well as Cedar Ridge School District worked together in helping provide these children with a hope for a better tomorrow.
Thank you for taking an interest in the children and making difference.
“Jesus said, “Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.”Matthew 19:14
New Life Children’s Home (NLCH) is licensed by the State of Arkansas Child Agency Review Board in cooperation with the Arkansas Department of Human Services . We have been in operation for 3 years and have been able to help hundreds of abused , neglected, and abandoned children change their lives through a spiritual program based on Biblical principles. We have decided to restructure our home, so that we will be able to admit children through private placement. This decision is being made due to our strong beliefs in maintaining a spritual based home, where children are given a chance to develop a relationship with Jesus Christ in order to enhance their ability to live a productive and joyful life.
The NLCH admits children without regard to race, creed, color, religion, or national origin. Children must also: **Please call if you have children needing our assistance

Hello! In September 2010, I took over as Administrator of the New Life Children’s Home. It humbles me greatly knowing that the Lord trusts me with a position working with these children. I have over fifteen years of experience working with children in ministry, in residential treatment, and in schools.
It is the calling God has given to me, and I pray everything I do it is done for His glory. I also have the privilege of begin the pastor of Swifton Baptist Church for the past 3 years. It is often times difficult finding enough time for both ministries, but God always makes it work. An understanding church and a dedicated staff make all the difference for me. My wife Sherry and I have been married nine years now and we know each other pretty well. We love serving the Lord and serving children in everything we do.
Our prayer is for this ministry to reach every child that is abused or neglected and needs an encounter with a loving heavenly Father. Will you partner with us in making a difference in His Kingdom? Please call or send us an email if you have any questions about how you can get involved in this ministry.
