Houseparenting…

Married couples committed to ministry who are graduates of Bible institutes, preacher schools, Christian colleges and universities often become preachers, youth and family ministers, missionaries etc. There is another option that also includes a paid ministry position for not just the Christian man, but also the Christian woman…Houseparenting!
Congregations of the churches of Christ across the United States support various children’s homes. Most are funded by a combination of funds from the government, churches and individuals. Government funding often interferes with the spiritual mission of Christian children’s homes…but not at Children’s Homes, Inc.
CHI is a family-style children’s home with an academy fully-funded by Christians and churches of Christ, not the government. CHI started as a ministry of the 7th and Mueller Church of Christ in 1955. Today, the shepherds of this church still make up the governing board of the ministry and continue to provide oversite. CHI continues as a ministry of the church of Christ with spiritual and financial support from roughly 400 congregations, 17,000 individual donors and a small endowment.
CHI’s ELA is located in Paragould, Ark., on a combined 380 picturesque acres on beautiful Crowley’s Ridge in Northeast Arkansas. CHI is twenty minutes from Jonesboro Ark., two hours from Little Rock Ark,. an hour and a half from Memphis Tenn., and four hours from Saint Louis, Mo.

Each family home has separate 900 to 1,200 sq. ft. private living quarters for houseparent families. The family homes are 3,500 to 3,700 sq. ft. of total living space.
SALARY, BENEFITS AND SAVINGS
Houseparent couples earn a base gross salary of $60,000 annually. Gross salary increases are possible based on prior houseparenting experience. Houseparent couples receive 12 weeks off annually.
