Every day we are faced with lies. Many of these lies attack the very essence of who we are...our identity as a child of God. Because of the trauma kids at CCHO have endured, they are facing constant lies and attacks on their worth. The best way to battle lies is to know the TRUTH. The more you know about WHO you are in Christ the easier it becomes to distinguish lies from truth.

Last Friday, we welcomed this incredible group of students from Kingsway Christian School! They helped paint the pasture fencing and they brought joy to the campus while they painted, playing Christmas music, singing and greeting everyone with a smiling face. Thank you, Kingsway, for braving the cold and adding beauty and cheer to our campus โค๏ธ

๐—–๐—ฎ๐—น๐—ฒ๐—ฏ was recently discharged from CCHO after an incredible journey of healing. When he first arrived last year, he was angry, hurt, and struggled to trustโ€”especially women. He dealt with severe feelings of abandonment and low self-worth. Over time, our team, especially Amanda, patiently built a bond with him and helped him begin to trust again. Caleb did not like to be vulnerable and so would discretely ask for Amanda at bedtime. Sheโ€™d read him a story-while giving him head scratches, then tuck him in like a burrito.

But Caleb still had a strong sense of abandonment. Never fully trusting staff and not allowing them to get too close. He would not accept a hug from Amanda. Ever.

Caleb recently learned a foster home had been found for him. He came back from a visit full of wonder, amazement, and excitement. He had a sparkle in his eyes again. It was like a river of life began to flow through his body. The biggest milestone came when Caleb, for the first time in over a year, asked Amanda for a hug. That simple moment showed just how far heโ€™s come. Amanda says, "A year and a half later...and he finally trusted me!" It just took consistent care, patience and love.

Caleb is learning to trust, to love, and to be loved. Weโ€™re so proud of his courage and growth! And so excited for his future with a loving foster home โค๏ธ
