Open Door Policies:

I. The following will be considered for admission
a.  ages from birth to 16 years
b.  from broken homes
c.  orphaned
 

d.  abused
e.  neglected
f.  from homes unable to support them

II. Open Door Christian Ministries presently consists of one home, which can care for as many as ten children.

a.   It is designed for long-term care.  This is to provide opportunity for the children to develop.  While short term in not prohibited, it is discouraged.

b.  Children may stay at Open Door until:
-  a suitable home is provided.
-  they are ready to take their place in society.

c.   We hope that each child reaching maturity and leaving the home would always view the home, just as any child does when he leaves his natural home.

III. Support

Open Door Christian Ministries began with and is sustained for the most part by Church of Christ and Independent Christian Churches.  This brotherhood has no denominational headquarters or heads.  It is a united effort of individual and independent churches toward a common goal of Christian benevolence.  We are committed to teaching and practicing Christianity as taught in the New Testament.

Methods of support are: prayer, donations (food, household products, etc), financial gifts and time.
