The Table: A House Church Network

The household is Mother, her 7 children, and 1 child that was placed with her. She is fictive kin for the child. The Mother is looking to get a twin size bed for the child and some bedding for him. He is 13 years old. There is no preference on anything.

Mother just got her apartment and is in need of new furniture and kitchen supplies! Mother is asking for all the help that she can get to make the house feel more like a home and when she is reunified with her child, she wants to make sure the home is all set up and made to feel comfortable.

Mother moved into a home with only beddings and needs living room and dinning room furniture.

A Family in Need of a Lifeline

We’re reaching out on behalf of one of our client families who is facing a difficult season. The father recently lost his job, and although the mother is working full time, her income alone isn’t enough to sustain the household. Despite their best efforts, they are struggling to cover basic needs—gas, rent, and utilities—and are in urgent need of support.

This is a hardworking family that isn’t looking for a handout, but a hand up. They have been actively engaged in our parenting program, consistently attending classes and using their earned baby bucks to purchase diapers and wipes. Their commitment to growth, stability, and their children’s well-being is evident.

The mother’s love for her children is inspiring. She is currently pregnant with her third child. She has an 11 y/o daughter and 3 y/o son. She faithfully brings them to the center, including her sweet pre-teen daughter who adores her baby brother. They are doing all they can—but right now, they just need a little help to bridge the gap until the father can secure new employment.

If you feel led to help, your generosity—whether through a gas card, rental assistance, or support with utility bills—would mean the world to this family. Together, we can be the lifeline they need to move forward with hope and dignity.

Thank you for considering how you can make a difference. 💛

Family recently moved into a new place after being homeless and living in a motel room. The family is in need of beds, living room furniture, and dishes. The family is in a three bedroom. Parents are in need of a Queen/King size bed and bedframe. The children are in need of two twin beds and bedframe. The family also need bedding for each room. Family is also requesting dressers for each room, two for larger bedroom due to parents sharing room with the two toddlers.

This family of six, including both parents and four children, are in need of three dressers for the children. Parents were previously involved in an out-of-home case with the Department years ago; however, they have been clean and sober for 7 years. The family has an open in-home services only case with the Department to ensure the children's needs continue to be met. One of the four children has an Oppositional Defiance Disorder diagnosis, which parents currently have them in therapy for to address; however, the child has damaged some furniture in the past when their ODD diagnosis wasn't fully addressed. These three dressers, for three out of the four children, would help ensure the children's rooms can be clean, organized and decluttered; the children having an organized and decluttered bedroom would help ensure school mornings can run more smoothly as well.
