Organizations Filed Purposes:
LifeHouse is a Christ-centered ministry ensuring life for unborn children by providing opportunities for housing, help, and hope for young women during their pregnancies and beyond.
Provides shelter and a loving Christian environment for pregnant women and new mothers who have no support. LifeHouse operates three homes in Houston, Texas. LifeHouse becomes a family to those without one and coaches the women beyond their living at LifeHouse.
Residential Maternity Our maternity program helps pregnant women with unplanned pregnancies. Whether the woman is homeless or has no other support during pregnancy, LifeHouse provides an atmosphere of housing, help, and hope. Christian houseparents manage the homes and incorporate the residents into their families and enjoy meals, fellowship, prayer, and worship together. While living at LifeHouse, women are taught basic life skills and parenting concepts, and make a plan for themselves and the life of their baby. They also work, pursue vocational training, or engage in continuing education classes. The home is a place of healing as 1/3 of our women are from the sex trafficking industry, 1/3 are from CPS and were never adopted, and all are a victim of domestic violence. Houseparents take women to the hospital when they go into labor, and hold their hand until the baby is born.
LifeLine The LifeLine program is for continued discipleship of every resident after she has moved out of LifeHouse. The group gathers monthly to hear encouragement and give encouragement to one another. They learn a new lesson each month that helps them to better parent their children, and grow as a person. The program is fast growing and has seen incredible success since its launch in 2018. The incidences of women finding themselves in another unplanned pregnancies has gone down since the inception of the program.
Residential Aftercare Our aftercare home is available for women who have lived in our maternity program. They can live with their baby for up to one year in the home. The purpose of this program is to provide a safe, loving home environment for the baby and the mom. The focus is on ensuring a healthy attachment between mother and baby in the first year of life. Houseparents live in the home and help the mom to parent as well as earn an education, so that she may become more stable. It is a long-term approach to investing in the woman for long-term change in her life.
