Words From Home
by Dr. Perry Hancock, President & CEO
A few days ago I watched the incredible video of George quoting Mark 16:2-8 which
describes the events on that first Easter morning. You might not find that very amazing but
George is only three years old. I have placed a link to the video at the bottom of this article.
When I saw George, I thought of our children here at LBCH. George’s family spent a great
deal of time helping him memorize the Scripture passage because, as you might imagine,
George can’t read yet.
That is the kind of care that our staff provides every day at the Chldren’s Home. They
teach them in word and deed about God’s great love and the fact that He has a plan for their lives. Most of the children
come with little or no church background. Easter, for them, is only about bunnies and eggs. But here, they learn the true
meaning of Easter; that Jesus, God’s Son, who loved us so much, came and died for our sins but rose from the tomb, a living Savior who can be our Savior and our Lord.
I simply cannot thank you enough for giving us the opportunity to share the wonderful message of Easter with the
children and families that God sends our way. Your support is helping us reach 1,000s with the message of love, life, and
hope in Christ. Thank you again. Have a blessed Easter.

• CAMPUS SPOTLIGHT •
By Debbie Robertson, HomeNews Writer
Wade is quite excited to have an excuse to skip out on his
studies for a few minutes. As he waves good-bye to his tutor, he
insists that the Coke Room is a much better location for visiting than the Library and leads the way. Wade is surprised to be
asked to share his story for HomeNews because he was interviewed recently for a video for the Louisiana Baptist Children’s
Home. He is certain that everyone has seen that video by now.
He is very inquisitive about the process as well as who will read
his story and why. Wade is very direct with his questions and
comments, and he will quickly win your heart with his smiles,
giggles, and charming personality.
Wade, his mom Tammy, and three-year-old brother, Patrick, have been part of the HomePlace
Ministry for about two months. They live in
Peace Cottage with three other families. “I
like it,” Wade says, and he adds his mom has
been happier since their arrival. Wade and
Patrick enjoy playing with two-year-old
Joseph, or Joe Joe, who also lives there,
but the other children in the cottage are
“all girls,” he says with a lack of enthusiasm.
A first grader at Cypress Point, Wade
comments about school, “I like it.”
Homework? Not so much. In his opinion,
“All of our work should be done at school
so we can play when we get home.” There’s
no hesitation as he reports that his favorite
subject is recess. After a little more discussion
about a routine day at school, he adds that he also
likes to color and read, and he likes his teacher, Mrs.
Pace. He takes a brief break to concentrate on drawing a picture and writing a couple of addition problems. He makes up
several math problems for you to solve, too. His mom says that
he’s always been a good student and makes good grades. She
loves the fact that this change has been so good for Wade and
now he enjoys going to school. She adds, laughing, “If he ever
gets in trouble, it’s for talking. He loves to talk!”
Tammy says that like most boys his age, Wade enjoys video
games and watching TV when time allows, but his favorite
thing is campus rec time. After school, Wade is always ready
for a game of “Monster,” or tag. With wide eyes and a huge
smile, he says that his favorite times are “when I’m not the
monster. And it’s not fun if the same person is the monster over
and over again.” It’s very important that everyone has a turn. He
likes to ride his bike and he likes the Coke Room! He frequently mentions visits to the Coke Room, although he’s a little disappointed that there aren’t any soft drinks available at the
Wade...
moment. The video was filmed in the Coke Room, and sometimes church or other activities are held there, so Wade considers it a very special place. Tammy and her boys like to eat out
occasionally. Wade has been to Johnny’s Pizza once, and that is
a new favorite. He also likes spaghetti and Mexican food.
When asked about his little brother, Wade says that he and
Patrick fuss and fight, “mostly because that’s what brothers
do!” Patrick loves his big brother and is always trying to either
imitate Wade or get his attention, “and then I get mad,” says
Wade. Tammy laughs and confirms that Patrick drives Wade
crazy at times, wanting to play or just hang out with big brother. Wade is impressed with his little brother in that “he is not
scared of anything!” Wade says he does not share that trait with
his brother. Wade shares in amazement that Patrick
doesn’t know a lot, “but our friend Joe Joe knows
his alphabet, he knows shapes and colors and
everything.” When encouraged that he could
help his little brother learn these things, the
response is a quick, firm, “No, Joseph can
do that.” Wade just wants his space!
Tammy loves the campus with the
grounds where the kids can fly kites or
just enjoy playing outside. On weekends,
the family visits grandparents and other
family members and they get to help with
the horses. She’s thankful to the
HomePlace Ministry and LBCH. “It’s a
good place with lots of support. They are
interested in you, your life and your children.
They provide everything you need so that you
learn to help yourself. The Christian Women’s
Job Corp helps you brush up on your computer
skills. If you don’t have a high school diploma, they
help you get your GED.” She has been working part time.
After completing classes offered through the Christian
Women’s Job Corp, Tammy has just accepted a full-time opportunity that she’s very excited about. In addition to the support
of LBCH, Tammy has been very impressed with the many
churches and other groups that reach out to the campus families. “On Saturdays, we always have some kind of function with
people here doing things with the children and the families.”
It’s a beautiful, spring day and some of the kids are outside
enjoying rec time. As Wade walks from the Coke Room back to
the Library, he looks as though he’s trying to decide if he can
make a run for it and join the group on the playground. With
the tutor’s assurance that they are almost finished with homework, Wade agrees that the sooner he finishes his studies, the
sooner he can join the next game of Monster!
“He likes school, LBCH & playing Monster.”

Easter Reminds Us... “Do No Be Afraid!”
Do you remember the angel who rolled the stone away from Jesus’
tomb? The first words he spoke to the women on that first Easter morning were, “Do not be afraid.” Just a few minutes later, our resurrected
Lord told those same women, “Do not be afraid” (see Matthew 28:1-10).
All of us are afraid at one time or another. The world today is a scary
place. Life is so unpredictable. Fear flows, not just from TV news stories, but from real-life experiences.
People generally deal with fear at three levels: (1) Surface Level – can I pay my bills, will I run out of gas,
what if I’m in an accident (2) Subconscious Level (right below the surface) – fear of failure, rejection, abandonment, losing control, being found out, inadequacy (3) Soul Level – the source of all fears, at the deepest level of
life, and is connected to our deepest inner need in life – to be loved and accepted unconditionally, just as we are.
Most of the children who come to us have been neglected, abused, or abandoned. They are facing their greatest fear and wondering if they will ever be loved and accepted unconditionally. This fear can become a self-imposed
prison that keeps them from becoming what God intends for them to be.
We all need to know that we are loved and accepted unconditionally. Easter reminds us of how much God loves
us. “But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us” (Romans
5:8). Easter reminds us that we do not have to be afraid. “There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear…”
(1 John 4:18). The good news of the Gospel—God’s perfect love demonstrated to us through the death, burial, and
resurrection of Christ—is the greatest truth that can overcome our greatest fear!
Easter makes our mission here at the Children’s Home possible. God is working through those who serve at
the Children’s Home to provide love, care and hope in Christ. The resurrection of Christ is the cornerstone of the
Christian faith, and everything that we are and have and hope to be is predicated on its reality.
Please know that God is making an eternal difference in the lives of the children and families we serve. Thank
you for helping us replace fear in the hearts of hurting children and families with the unconditional love and hope
of Christ!
“… Because God has said, ‘Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you.’ So we say with confidence, ‘The
Lord is my helper; I will not be afraid’” (Hebrews 13:5-6).

LIVING HOPE
Dear Friend of Children,
Someone has said that the great gift of Easter is hope. Sharing the gift of living hope in Christ with
children and families in need is a great joy for us here at the Children’s Home.
EASTER 2015
Jason* and Benjie* had never known a father’s love before coming into our care. Their mother has been
absent from much of their young lives due to her struggles with addiction. These brothers, ages 8 and 10, need lots of unconditional love and the gift of
living hope.
Jason is a sweet, smart, second-grader who recently received two reading awards at his school. He is great with vocabulary words. He has an incredible
imagination. He is learning to clean his room and he helps with dusting in his cottage. Jason likes attending his church.
Benjie is an active, creative fourth-grader who is getting good grades in his classwork and conduct. He really enjoys drawing and any kind of artwork.
He helps with vacuuming his cottage and he loves to give hugs. Benjie likes the children’s activities at his church.
Jason and Benjie are thriving in our care because of friends like you who help us provide the love, care, and hope in Christ these precious little boys so
desperately need. Please know that your partnership in this ministry enables us to not only meet the physical and emotional needs of children, but also helps us
share the living hope of our resurrected Lord. Your gift this Easter will help change a life!
Thank you and I pray that you and your family have a wonderful Easter!
Keeping God's Children First,
“Praise the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. According to His
great mercy, He has given us a new birth into a living hope through the
resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead.”

We Need You In
Nicaragua!
NICARAGUA
Saturday, August 1 – Friday, August 7, 2015
Registration Deadline Extended to April 15, 2015
Nicaragua is the poorest country in Central America and the second poorest in the Western Hemisphere. The country is plagued by severe income disparity among its people resulting in a great need for access to basic medical
care. Malnutrition is a chronic problem throughout the country effecting both
young and old.
Many children survive by scavenging for food on the streets or in the
sprawling public market of the capital city of Managua. Many families sell
plastic and metal obtained from the city dump as their only source of income.
Orphans Embrace partners with Nicaraguan Christian Outreach, a
Louisiana-based ministry founded in 2000, to share the love of Christ with the
people of Nicaragua. Mission projects include providing feeding programs,
clothes, shelter, education, counseling, and medical care.
Mission volunteers are needed and no special skills are required. For more
information or to apply for the trip, contact Rhonda Hensley at
[email protected] or 318.366.2952. You may also apply for the trip online at
www.lbchorphansembrace,org.

Children’s Home Partners with Compassion International to
Bring the Compassion Experience to Monroe
Louisiana Baptist Children’s Home is always asking the question, “Where are the
children who need us, and how can we meet their needs?” Through our Orphans
Embrace ministry last year, Louisiana mission volunteers touched the lives of almost
2,000 needy children in Guatemala, Nicaragua, and Haiti.
Realizing that not everyone has the opportunity to go on a mission trip and see the
other side of the world, LBCH recently partnered with Compassion International to
bring their mobile Compassion Experience to Monroe. Compassion International is a
leading child sponsorship organization whose mission is to release children from poverty in Jesus’ name. Compassion has development centers in 26 countries around the
world in Africa, Asia, Central America, and South America. They currently serve 1.6
million children with 1.3 million sponsors.
The Compassion Experience is a landmark presentation, housed in one or two
Compassion-branded semi-trucks, visiting churches, schools, and other venues across
the country. When deployed in a parking lot, the structure allows guests to take an
immersive tour through replicas of the homes, environments and stories of two or three
children who have been a part of Compassion’s world-class development program. Each
guest is equipped with an iPod Touch and headphones to guide them through the
Experience. At the end of the tour, guests enter a World Impact Room where they can
view photos and information about children of all ages who are waiting for sponsors. As
God leads, guests have the opportunity to sponsor one or more of these precious children.
During the four-day visit to Monroe, the Compassion Experience hosted more
than 2,600 guests from throughout the community and signed up 241 new child sponsors. LBCH is thankful for local Southern Baptist pastors and churches that encouraged
participation in the Compassion Experience. Local television stations and the Cross
Christian radio provided excellent coverage of the event that also contributed to its success.
Compassion International provided alumni speakers, Samuel Orlando, at North
Monroe Baptist Church and Ben Mwangi, at First Baptist West Monroe. Samuel was
born in a very poor province of the Dominican Republic called Luperon, Puerto Plata.
He had slim possibilities of gaining a decent education due to extreme poverty within
the community. Through Compassion, Samuel was able to obtain an education, become
a recording engineer, a musician, and a Christian singer. According to Samuel, “One of
the greatest things is that now I am able to give to others in a similar opportunity that
was provided for me!”
Ben grew up in the slums of Korogocho, one of the largest in Nairobi, Kenya.
Thanks to Compassion sponsors, Ben is now completing a Ph.D. in physics at the
University of Colorado. Ben says, "To me, university was a dream until I got the
Compassion scholarship. Sometimes I wonder, why I was chosen from all of the students in Korogocho. But I believe the Lord works in miraculous ways and Compassion
is my miracle." Ben now aims to disciple teenagers through Teen-Teen Connection,
which connects a teenager in a developed nation with another in a developing country.

Highlights from
HomePlace
Together!
By Susan C. Clark, Director
Someone once said, “The day the Lord created Hope was
the same day He created Spring.” After a March month of rain,
snow and sleet, we at HomePlace have to agree. There is
HOPE for sunshine again! There are no words to describe the
fragrances and beauty of spring. Green is greener, blue is bluer
and yellow is yellower in Springtime. Spring breathes new life
into us and gives us a whole new outlook on things. There is
HOPE!
HomePlace is looking forward to the Big Easter Egg Hunt
coming up on our calendar. More importantly, we are looking
forward to the celebration of our Resurrected King. I am
thrilled to announce that another one of our moms just surrendered her life to the Lord and was recently baptized. She has
HOPE!
Three of our ladies began new jobs in the last couple of
weeks. Another one of our moms will begin her second job this
month. I can say this for the very first time about HomePlace,
“Every one of our moms are employed!” They have HOPE!
In addition, three moms moved out this last month into a
place of their own. Every mother who moves into HomePlace
states that her number one goal is to have a place of her own to
raise her family. We only have one opening left to fill. I cannot wait to see what family God sends our way. They will have
HOPE!
We celebrated three children’s birthdays this month. All
three had birthday parties in their cottages. Patrick turned
three, Brodiee turned five and Travion celebrated his sixth
birthday. They found HOPE in birthday wishes.
We were blessed to have the women’s ministry teams from
First Baptist Church, Crowville, and First Baptist Church,
Swartz, to come spend an evening with us in HomePlace
Together. They have volunteered to become part of a mentoring team for HomePlace. They will bring HOPE.
HOPE…. Jesus Christ in us, the HOPE of glory; Rejoice in
HOPE; For in this HOPE, we were saved; But now Lord, what
do I look for, my HOPE is in you; May the God of HOPE fill
you with all joy and peace; For I know the thoughts that I think
toward you, says the LORD, thoughts of peace and not of evil,
to give you a future and a HOPE.
HOPE lives at HomePlace located at the Louisiana Baptist
Children’s Home. And I give Him praise!!!!!

Connect 1:27 is helping families and churches across Louisiana to answer
God’s call to minister to orphans through Foster Care, Adoption, and Orphan Care
ministries.
Over 4,000 children are in Louisiana’s foster care system. More than 300 of
these children are lingering in foster care because they have no adoptive family.
Many of these precious children are in our own back yards. All of these children
are our modern-day orphans. God has given clear commands in His Word for
Christians to take care of orphans.
Churches joining the Connect 1:27 Network receive a FREE Orphan Care
Tool Kit that includes: Orphan Care Ministry Guide, The Theology of Adoption,
Orphan Care Sermon, Bible Study & Prayer Guides, Adoption Options, Foster
Care & Adoptive Parent Guide, and Fields of the Fatherless by Tom Davis.
In addition, churches will have access to online resources available only to
Connect 1:27 Network members and will receive a monthly Connect 1:27
E-Newsletter.
MEMBERSHIP IS EASY & FREE!
To join the Connect 1:27 Network, your church is asked to commit to
at least one of the following annually:
•
•
•

Help with Attachment Issues
Dr. Kathy Eichelberger, Director
Granberry Counseling Centers
Attachment is the deep connection established
between a child and caregiver that profoundly affects
the child’s development and ability to express emotions
and develop relationships. If you are a parent of a child
with an attachment disorder, you may find yourself
exhausted from trying to connect with your child. A
child with insecure attachment or an attachment disorder lacks the skills for building healthy, meaningful
relationships. However, with the appropriate tools and
effort, prayer, patience, and unconditional love, it is
possible to repair attachment challenges.
Children with attachment issues have difficulty
connecting others and managing their own emotions.
This results in a lack of trust and self-worth, a fear of
getting close to anyone, anger, and a need to be in control. A child with an attachment disorder feels unsafe
and alone.
So why do some children develop attachment disorders while others don’t? The answer has to do with the
attachment process, which relies on the interaction of
both parent and child.
Attachment disorders are the result of negative
experiences in this early relationship. If young children
feel repeatedly abandoned, isolated, powerless, or
uncared for—for whatever reason—they will learn that
they can’t depend on others and the world is a dangerous and frightening place.
Reactive attachment disorder or other attachment
problems occur when children have been unable to consistently connect with a parent or primary caregiver.
This can happen for many reasons:
• A baby cries and no one responds or offers comfort.
• A baby is hungry or wet, and they aren’t attended to
for hours.
• No one looks at, talks to, or smiles at the baby, so
the baby feels alone.
• A young child gets attention only by acting out or
displaying other extreme behaviors.
• A young child or baby is mistreated or abused.
• Sometimes the child’s needs are met and sometimes
they aren’t, so the child never knows what to expect.
• The infant or young child is moved from one caregiver to another (can be the result of adoption,
foster care, or loss of a parent).
• The parent is emotionally unavailable because of
depression, an illness, or substance abuse.
As these examples show, sometimes the circumstances that cause the attachment problems are
unavoidable, but the child is too young to understand
what has happened and why. To a young child, it just
feels like no one cares and they lose trust in others and
the world becomes an unsafe place.
If you are an adoptive or foster parent, you may not
have been aware of attachment issues. Anger or unresponsiveness from your new child can be heartbreaking
and difficult to understand. Try to remember that your
adopted or foster child isn’t acting out because of lack
of love for you. Their experience hasn’t prepared them
to bond with you, and they can’t yet recognize you as a
source of love and comfort. Your efforts to love them
unconditionally will have an impact—it just may take
some time.

Issues and Reactive Attachment Disorder” by Melinda
Smith, M.A., Joanna Saison, MSW, and Jeanne Segal,
PhD. at HelpGuide.org.
