Words From Home
by Dr. Perry Hancock, President & CEO
In this edition of the Children’s Home News you will enjoy seeing pictures
of our annual Children’s Celebration Banquet. The Banquet is attended each
year by school teachers, church members, trustees, and other special friends
who have played an important role in the success of our children during the
year.
The theme for the Banquet this year was “God Has a Plan for Your Life
That is Out of This World” based on Jeremiah 29:11. Cottage parents, family
workers, administrative staff, and others identified traits in the children that can be found in a follower of Christ. Those
qualities were placed on a certificate, read aloud, and presented to each child. I wish you could have seen their faces as
they received such positive recognition. For many, it was the first time in their lives that someone encouraged them for
making good choices. Along with that special time we also enjoyed entertainment provided by our young people.
I hope that you enjoy reading the other stories about the many ways you are making a difference and changing lives
through the various ministries of the Children’s Home.
Please remember to pray for us each day and when you have the opportunity, plan a visit to the campus in Monroe.
We would love to provide you with a tour. Until then, may God bless you as you are a blessing to His children at your
Louisiana Baptist Children’s Home.

• CAMPUS SPOTLIGHT •
By Debbie Robertson, HomeNews Writer
The door to Peace Cottage is opened by a friendly little girl
with a huge smile. Older brother Joshua runs into the room,
eager to join the fun. They hurry to find their places on the sofa
with their mom. Once everyone is comfortable—Laila in front
of her mom and Joshua on the arm of the sofa behind them—
the conversation begins. All three are warm, friendly, and
they are obviously a very close-knit family.
Toni and her children have been part of the
HomePlace Ministry for a year. Toni’s face lights
up as she shares her family’s experience, “This
place has given such a great opportunity for me
to just start my life over. Since I have been here,
I have been around such good people, good
women. They have supported me and my family in every way that we needed to be supported.
There are so many things…. I have learned a lot,
and my kids have been exposed to things they
would not have been if we hadn’t come here.”
Toni loves that her children have been in a good
school. Laila and Joshua chime in, ready to talk about
their day. Laila, who is completing first grade, and Joshua,
third grade, are excited about their year-end awards at school.
Both love school and both proudly report that they are honor
roll students at Cypress Point. Joshua’s favorite subject is math.
Laila enjoys art and wants to do manicures someday. She also
likes “anything with computers.”
“Joshua is a leader,” says Toni. “Any opportunity he has
to lead, he takes it.” As the conversation continues,
Joshua moves to the middle of the living room floor
for a few minutes of impromptu gymnastics. Toni
laughs that Joshua is definitely “very active” and
adds that he’s also “so curious.” “Like Curious
George?” he asks. Toni laughs and confirms,
“Yes, just like Curious George…. He always
wants to know about things. I don’t even know
about some of the things he questions. Joshua
has always had the attributes of a leader. He tries
to lead whatever situation he is in and he seems
to do it well.”
Laila is “sometimes bossy but so sweet. And
she’s always willing to share with others.” Laila adds
that she loves cleaning and making her bed, a statement
that Joshua teases her about. He’s not so sure that’s the case.
“Laila always wants to learn,” says Toni. “I’ve always read to
her. She is smart and wants to know the meaning of all the
words that are new to her. She is definitely a giver and she likes
to make friends and to play with her friends.” Both children
love the LBCH campus where they can go outside, they always
have friends to play with, and there are numerous activities in
which to participate.
Joshua & Laila
The conversation turns to Lifeline Church and Laila’s participation as a praise dancer for a brief time. Joshua grabs a
Bible, sits down beside his mom, and begins to read aloud from
Isaiah. He has excellent reading skills and, indeed, one can
almost imagine him leading a congregation one day. He shares
that his name in the Bible means “courageous.”
Toni stays busy with her job and she studies in the
evenings, preparing for completion of her GED. When all
three have finished their homework, they enjoy watching TV together. Their favorite activity is making up
games. Toni says she always loves their time “just
hanging out together,” and their very best times
are when the kids have the opportunity to be creative. Laila is a very good story teller, making it
up as she goes along; and they frequently create
their own word games. Joshua and Laila giggle
as Toni adds that they are also very skilled at
ganging up on her when they want something.
The family is looking forward to moving into
a home of their own in the near future. Toni credits
the Louisiana Baptist Children’s Home with helping
her reach this goal and for making such a tremendous
difference for her family. “Can I just say how much I appreciate them and give a couple of people a shout-out?” she asks
excitedly. “Susan Clark (LBCH Director of Family Care
Ministries) is great; she is awesome. I have never met a person
like her. Just her presence, she just knows how to make you feel
good. Even a day that has been filled with junk, she’s so reassuring and knows how to make you feel better. She is so gifted.
“Tonya Hancock (Director of the Christian
Women’s Job Corp) made it possible for me to go
and be tested and to begin working on my GED.”
“I feel that everybody should be exposed to
this place, no matter what walk of life they are
in, because there is no place like it. There are so
many God-filled people who want you to succeed every step of the way. I am so grateful for
this place. When I came here, I didn’t know anything. I found hope here for me and for my kids.
This is something we won’t ever forget. It’s made
me a better parent and a better person. There have
been a lot of ups and downs and I’ve had to swallow
my pride a lot of times, but I’ve learned to be humble. And
we’re still learning. It’s been so good for all of us to be here.”
Toni admits it’s been tough some days combining work and
her studies, but the LBCH family has provided support and
encouragement every step of the way. Between these relationships and the friendships formed with other moms in Peace
Cottage, she, Joshua and Laila have a strong network to help
them as they transition to a home of their own.
“The best times are when they have the opportunity to be creative”

Annual Offering – June 8, 2014!
Why Do We Care for Orphans?
It is important to reflect on why we care for orphans—to consider the biblical foundations for foster care, adoption, and orphan
care ministries. God gives ample reasons through His Word for His
people to be motivated and mobilized to care for the fatherless.
The Old Testament clearly reveals a pattern of God’s care for the orphan and His command for His followers to demonstrate compassion for them in tangible and practical ways. God demands that the orphan be
treated with justice and shown mercy. God equates mistreating the fatherless with sin and He equates caring
for the fatherless with righteousness and blessing (see Exodus 22:22; Deuteronomy 10:18; 14:28-29; 24:1721; 27:19; Job 24:3; 29:11-12; Psalm 10:14, 18; 68:5-6; 82:3; 94:3-7; 146:7-9; Proverbs 23:10-11; Isaiah
1:16-17, 23; 10:12; Jeremiah 5:28; 7:1-7; 22:3; 49:11; Hosea 14:3; Zechariah 7:8-10; and Malachi 3:5).
The New Testament doctrine of adoption can be found in five passages in the apostle Paul’s epistles:
Romans 8:14-17, 23; 9:4; Galatians 4:3-7; and Ephesians 1:3-6. New Testament adoption describes the act
of God whereby He makes us members of His family, by grace through faith in His Son, Jesus Christ, thus
granting us all the rights, privileges, and responsibilities therein. No community of people in this world
should be more attuned to the cries of the orphan than the dearly loved, adopted children of God. Courage,
confidence, and endurance in our care for orphans, especially when life is tough, should flow from our
knowledge that God deals with us only and always in terms of our adoption in and union with Christ.
James 1:27 states, “Pure and undefiled religion in the sight of our God and Father is this: to visit
orphans and widows in their distress, and to keep oneself unstained by the world.” The phrase “orphans and
widows” is used over 40 times by Old Testament writers, but only once in the New Testament. The first century Jewish Christian readers immediately knew what James was calling for based upon their knowledge of
the Old Testament. Followers of Yahweh, true disciples of Christ, will “visit” (episkeptomai) – actually
extend real care toward orphans. This pivotal verse is the New Testament foundation for the call to minister
to the orphan. It must be read and understood in relation to the many Old Testament texts that call for justice and provision for the fatherless.
These three areas of Scripture bear strong witness to God’s care for the orphan and His clear desire that
His people do likewise. It is only through the generosity of God’s people that LBCH is able to meet the
tremendous needs of the fatherless that we encounter every day.
I pray that you and your church will join with others across our state and give generously to this year’s
Children’s Home Sunday Offering. Please consider becoming a “helper of the orphan” (Psalm 10:14)
through our “Connect:127” ministry at www.connect127.org or www.LBCH.org.
Thank you for aligning your hearts with His to accomplish His will in caring for children in need!

SHORT-TERM CHILD
RESIDENTIAL PROGRAM
INTRODUCED
LBCHFM continually strives to minister to the changing needs of children and families in our state. Currently
there are hundreds of families facing crises, which place
their children at risk. Crises might include financial problems, unemployment and homelessness. In other cases, children come from families in which the parent needs time to
heal physically or emotionally, or is recovering from an
alcohol or drug addiction. Other families encounter a crisis
when a parent is facing a brief incarceration period.
LBCHFM is implementing a program that will offer a
short-term, Christian residential home for children whose
parents are experiencing these types of crises that affect
their ability to provide care and/or safety for their children,
and have no other child care resources available.
The short-term residential program will serve children
ages five through fourteen. Certified foster cottage parents
will provide care for the children on the Children’s Home
campus in Monroe. Custodial parents or guardians will voluntarily place their children for approximately two to six
months. Weekly visitation, phone calls, and letters will be
encouraged to promote family stability and the parent/child
attachment.
If you or someone you know could benefit from this
ministry, please contact LBCHFM Family Services for
additional information at 318-343-2244.

God has a plan for you that is... OUT O
OF THIS WORLD!
The theme of the 2014 Annual LBCH Children’s Recognition Banquet,
“God has a plan for you that is out of this world” was chosen by Director
of Cottage Life, Tommy Frost, to highlight God’s awesome plans for each
and every one of His children.
With over 200 in attendence for the event including LBCH children,
staff members and trustees, as well as community leaders and special
friends, the event really was “out of this world!”
Every LBCH resident was recognized for their special talents and
accomplishments over the past year. We are so proud of these boys and
girls!
A special “thank you” goes out to Mrs. Effie Bailey and the Judy Lynn
Bailey Endowment fund which makes this annual event possible.
Highlights from
GRANBERRY
COUNSELING
CENTERS
By Susan C. Clark, Director
Whew……made another school year! Blessed be the NAME OF THE LORD!!!!!! Now what? First off, it’s
planting time again. Last spring was our first attempt at gardening at HomePlace. On a scale of one to ten, I would
have to say that we ranked about a seven, taking into consideration the soil of the heart. Our hearts were eager and
excited about the new adventure. That in itself over shadowed the lean crop.
This year we have taken a giant leap of faith and doubled the size of the garden with many more “little hands”
helping out. What a blessing it is to see children digging in the dirt knowing that they will see the fruit of their
labor. Although as a whole, they just enjoyed playing in the dirt. Stay tuned in to “the rest of the story” in a few
weeks.
Although Christian Women’s Job Corp’s semester ended in May, we will begin our summer session in two
weeks. The ladies are looking forward to being a part of this curriculum. We will help explore the creative side of
each mom by doing crafts. Also, the ladies will serve in several community mission projects. Some women will
complete the academic requirements to sit for their Hi-Set (the new GED). Assessments and testing will continue
to be done as well as engaging in Bible Study.
The children of HomePlace will begin their recreation time which will include a variety of activities. The pool
will be opened soon and that is always a high priority in these children’s lives. They will attend Vacation Bible
School as well as being involved in Bible School on campus. Fun times just ahead!!!
I am reminded that someone once said, “The fact that I can plant a seed and it becomes a flower, share a bit of
knowledge and it becomes another's, smile at someone and receive a smile in return, are to me evidences of God’s
presence.” I concur.

LBCHFM and Partners Finding
Forever Families
for Modern-Day Orphans
Over the Edge for Adoption
Louisiana Baptist Children’s Home & Family Ministries joined Louisiana Family
Forum on May 9, 2014, at the second Over the Edge for Adoption event downtown Baton
Rouge. The purpose of the event was to raise awareness, especially in the faith community, of the number of children in Louisiana’s foster care system who are waiting to be
adopted. Over 300 of these modern-day orphans desperately need a permanent Christian
family they can call their own.
This year, about 90 rapellers went “over the edge” of the 24-story One American
Place, the second tallest building in Baton Rouge. Rapellers included pastors, state and
local legislators, Kori, Sadie, and John Luke Robertson from Duck Dynasty, and
Louisiana’s First Lady, Supriya Jindal.
As a result of this partnership, over 100 churches across the state have signed on and
committed to finding families to start the process of foster care and adoption!
Wait No More: Finding Families for Waiting Kids
Louisiana Baptist Children’s Home & Family Ministries partnered with Focus on the
Family and Louisiana Family Forum on May 10, 2014, for a Wait No More conference
at Istrouma Baptist Church in Baton Rouge. More than 200 people attended representing 80 different families and 60 different churches.
There were 13 agencies and ministries on site to answer participants’ questions and
help them start the process of adoption from foster care. Twenty-two families initiated
the process of adoption from foster care at the event. In addition, nine families indicated their desire to get involved by praying, wrapping around an adoptive family, or giving to help orphan care ministries.
If you or your church are interested in foster care, adoption, or orphan care ministries, please contact Beth Green at 318-343-2244 or [email protected] or www.lbch.org
or www.connect127.org.

May/June 2014
FREE 2014 VBS NAMETAGS!
This summer, the Children’s Home would like
to be a part of your VBS.
We are offering the following at no cost to
help with your event:
• Free originally designed VBS Name Tags to LA Baptist
Churches while they last! (cords included)
• Children’s Home speakers are ready and waiting to visit your
VBS and tell the Children’s Home story.
(Call early! Speaking schedules are limited.)
• Free LBCH DVDs are available for use at your VBS.
• VBSers are invited to go on a field trip to our Children’s
Home campus in Monroe. Children will discover first-hand
how Louisiana Baptists help those in need.
Contact us at 318-343-2244 or [email protected] today!
