Holston United Methodist Home for Children is “home for the holidays” for about 55 youth who are surrounded by a family of staff, students, and volunteers who deeply care for them. They will enjoy delicious meals and participate in the timeless traditions that make the holidays so special. And, most importantly, they will hear about Jesus Christ and His great love for each of them.
The season opened on Tuesday, November 22nd with the annual Turkey Bowl, a flag football game played by youth and staff at Holston Home’s Ron Jones Memorial Sports Field. This has become a favorite tradition for the HHC family.
In addition to preparing for the Turkey Bowl, staff and students at Holston Home have spent countless hours turning the campus into a winter wonderland.
On Tuesday, December 13th the campus will be open to the community from 6-8 p.m. All are invited to take part in the Christmas festivities including music, lights, kids’ craft activities, pictures with Santa, cookie decorating, and face painting. All activities are free. P lease enter the campus at the Holston Drive entrance. Drive slowly to enjoy the lights and follow the signs to end at the Rock where parking will be available. Guests are invited inside to visit Santa and enjoy light refreshments served in the Rock.
