FALL 2015 VOLUME XLVI No. 3
Happy Happy Ha Haven Children’s Home is sponsored by churches of Christ.
�is year Happy Haven celebrates 50 years – our Golden Anniversary – of service and ministry. Looking back into the history of the property now known as Happy Haven, previously the property of the County Farm, it was a home for the homeless whether they were young or old. In 1965, the Willow Avenue church of Christ established and sponsored Happy Haven Children’s Home with the assistance and �nancial support of other churches and individuals. At that time, the property included a 35-room structure with 3 apartments, each housing a set of house parents and children. While that old building is no longer standing, Happy Haven now includes three homes (the Abston house, the Richmond Chapel-Nevins house, and the Gainesboro house) each of which include 5-6 bedrooms upstairs and a basement, along with the Farris o�ce building, the Ogden picnic shelter, a barn and a storage building. �rough the years, Happy Haven has served literally hundreds of children in need as well as their families. �ere are children who have been baptized into Christ during their stay here. �e Je�erson Avenue church of Christ now oversees the work here with the continued assistance and �nancial support of other churches and individuals. In the past 12 months, Happy Haven has served 14 children.
Happy Haven Children’s Home is a Christian home that helps children to grow physically, mentally, socially, and spiritually as we share God’s love with them. Happy Haven exists to bring comfort to those who are hurting, hope to those who are hopeless, and light to those who are in darkness. We seek God’s blessings in our ministry and are so grateful to all those who support our work here. Because of your donations, our ministry and service can continue for years to come. --- Houston Bynum
