Compassion for Children

The children who live in the cottages at the children’s village are all victims of abuse, neglect, abandonment, and/or other unfortunate circumstances. When these children come to Christian City, their spirits are crushed, they are angry and defensive, and they do not trust the adults in their lives. Our house parents work with these children and love them unconditionally so that they understand that this relationship is different from relationships they had in the past. The relationship of a house parent with a child is full of love and respect; however, it does take some time for the child to fully be able to love in return.

Our house parents have compassion for these children and love them as their own. The Children’s Village is creating a childhood for these children, which was taken away from them at such an early age. If you would like to learn more about the Children’s Village, Christian City, or how to sponsor the children, please visit www.christiancity.org

Reporting Child Abuse

Child abuse is a considerable problem in the United States and throughout the world. There are over 100,000 cases of child abuse reported in Georgia alone. This number alone is alarmingly high, but unfortunately child abuse goes unreported on a daily basis. Children stay in unsafe environments because they are too scared to say anything or because they do not know any better. It is important to report any cases of abuse to the authorities so that these children can receive help and the care that they need.

The Children’s Village at Christian City is a safe haven for children who have been victims of abuse, neglect, and/or abandonment. The Children’s Village provides the care that these children need, while also providing them with the love they desperately want. To learn more about the Children’s Village or Christian City, please visit www.christiancity.org.
