Presbyterian Children’s Home and Services

Please join us for this year’s Annual Luncheon!
“Hope Outshines Hardship” Luncheon
Wednesday, May 6, 2025, 12-1 p.m.
Ridglea Country Club at 3700 Bernie Anderson Ave, Fort Worth, TX 76116

This luncheon is free to attend and offers a meaningful opportunity to hear how God is working through PCHAS across the region. You will hear stories from families whose lives have been impacted by our programs, along with insights from local community leaders who see firsthand how compassion, stability, and hope are changing lives.

This year’s theme, Hope Outshines Hardship, reflects what we witness every day — children and families discovering strength, healing, and possibility even in the midst of difficult circumstances. Come and see how your generosity provides tangible support and lasting hope every single day.

Contact Bob or Marge Dawson (214.415.5396) or sign up by calling the church office (817.274.8286).

Arlington Life Shelter

A new leaf. A clean slate. No matter what you call it, the beginning of 2026 brought brand new opportunities to all of us.

For our neighbors experiencing homelessness, a fresh start is the first step on the path to self-sufficiency. Just ask Darnyell.

Every day, Darnyell shows her son, Jaden, what hard work looks like. She’s determined to build a happy life for the family. So, after she was laid off from her HR job in Virginia, they moved to Texas in search of new opportunities.

The move was a tradeoff. Darnyell could see a stronger future here — but at first, she and Jaden had no stable home to rely on.

We’re here to provide neighbors just like Darnyell with three meals every day, safe shelter and a path to self-sufficiency — 24/7, 365 days per year. You can help by donating today.

It is critical to start the new year off as strong as possible. In support of the families, women, children and men we serve together, please, send your gift now.

Thank you for your partnership in the first months of 2026!
