Hats Off tO tHe Graduates! 2023

PCHAS is proud to announce the Graduates of 2023 as these youth and young adults find the stability to achieve their goals and become independent.

John Wilcut in the cap and gown is pictured here with Harris House staff Logan Mueller. John graduated from Farmington High School and is planning to study Zoology in College this fall.

Devyn Rogers also graduated with John and we celebrated their graduation with a party at Harris House. Both John and Devyn are part of our Harris House group home program and are working toward their own apartment through PCHAS.

Hannah Conklin in the purple gown also graduated and is currently in a transitional living apartment in Farmington. Hannah is registered for fall classes and hopes to earn an Associate’s degree.

This summer will be filled with more wonder and excitement for a group of children served by Presbyterian Children’s Homes and Services thanks to Grace Presbytery!

These twenty-two children will get to explore the wild and experience new adventures at Camp Gilmont! It’s a great way to continue their social, emotional and spiritual growth, develop better problem-solving skills, and learn to work with others. They’ll do so while navigating the great outdoors, eating s’mores and learning energizers and faith-inspiring songs.

Graced with Summer Camp

This opportunity was made possible by Grace Presbytery through its Prairie Valley Legacy Funds. A generous grant has been approved to cover camp costs for these 22 excited campers, and they couldn’t be happier! They’re excited to test their mettle and learn new things in a fun and safe atmosphere.

Gifts such as this further our mission of ensuring the needs of children and families are met through strategic initiatives aimed at living healthier lives. On behalf of the staff at PCHAS, President David Thompson said, “PCHAS is thankful for partners such as Grace Presbytery and Camp Gilmont – and collaborating with us to make the lives of children and families better.”
