"Religion
that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after
orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being
polluted by the world"
- James 1:27
Church Orphan Homes
The
reason these homes are called church-orphan homes is pretty simple. Its because that is exactly what they are. The kids live at
church. Imagine that! All local churches should be involved in addressing
the needs of the community and when a community has thousands of children
without families, who better to take care of them then the
family of God.

With
the orphan population growing in epidemic proportions, there is an
enormous, immediate need for orphan care around the world.
Warm Blankets offers a fresh, dynamic approach to confront the problem,
through establishing and supporting church-based Family Homes. Each home
has a family atmosphere based on love and compassion that is touched by
the Word of God. Every home shares it's building with the local Christian
church (see
photos).
Widows are the principal caregivers in each orphan care facility. They
understand the pain each orphan faces, having experienced loss as well. We
maintain a staff ratio of one caregiver for every five children, so you
can be assured that a frightened child will be held and comforted by
someone who cares.
This unique church/home combination provides an effective method of
meeting both the spiritual and physical needs of each orphan.
Each home has the capacity to house about 40 children. The homes provide
beneficial, nurturing, holistic care to parentless infants, children, and
adolescents. A healthy, flourishing environment filled with love.
