The Ohio Family Mission Trips are a great to way to help your family grow in their relationship with Christ and each other. There are some wonderful opportunities to serve people with your entire family. These trips are low cost, and provide an excellent chance to teach your children about becoming the hands and feet of Jesus.
The first night is spent settling in and getting better acquainted with each other. The next morning begins with breakfast, a family devotional time, and project orientation. Some time is spent with the residents of the children's home in relational activities as well. Clean-up begins late in the afternoon followed by some down time to take a shower and relax. Dinner is served at 5:30 pm and each evening we will have a time of sharing, debriefing, and playing games.
Located in Pleasant Plain, Ohio reaches out to touch the lives of children in need of physical, spiritual and emotional healing. The operation and program reflect Christian principles. MWCH provides group home programs, adoption services, foster care programs, Village Christian School, and the Therapeutic Education Service Center. They currently have 6 houses with a total of 29 children and 7 sets of house parents. Cabins and an RV campground provide two lodging options with the detached bathhouse for restrooms and showers.
The home began with vision and faith in 1969 when local Christians saw a need for a home to serve needy children in a family-style setting. They organized the ministry and purchased a 175-acre farm just north of Wooster, Ohio. It currently has 35 children ages 6-18 living in their homes. The campus is now home to five large cottages, offices, a counseling center, an adventure course, an equestrian therapy program, and a worship and retreat center. In addition to the residential programs at Wooster, CCHO has Foster Care and Adoptions Services.
