President, Gracewood
Houston
This year, we walked alongside 23 single mothers and 45 children, in our residential programs, who came to us exhausted, afraid, and carrying the weight of trauma and uncertainty. Empowered by the unfailing love of Christ and a relentless community of supporters, Gracewood stepped into the gap for these families by providing safe housing, holistic support services, and opportunities to learn and develop new skills.
We celebrated milestones both large and small: babies taking their first steps in our recreation center, high school and college graduations, faith and hope being restored to mothers and children alike.
This year, we saw the official launch of our first homeless prevention program! Through the new Family Relief program, we provided rental assistance, life skills training, financial literacy, parenting classes and spiritual development to single mothers in our community. We look forward to seeing how God uses this program to impact many lives.
As you read this annual report, I hope that you will read each statistic as a story of resilience and courage and a testament of the faithfulness of God. Gracewood remains steadfast in our commitment to providing Christ-centered care to mothers and children. Thank you for believing boldly with us, serving faithfully beside us, and trusting God to do immeasurably more than we could ask or imagine in the years to come!
