Our
mission is to “Love because He first loved us” (1
John 4:19) and to show that love
by providing a home for women in crisis (1 John 3:16) while upholding
Christian principles and biblical truths. Avonlea Acres is a home
where grace is extended; growth is a process; and boundaries are
upheld.
Avonlea Acres is a home based on faith, hope and love; practicing
hospitality; promoting spiritual growth; celebrating life; and
embracing each woman in her unique situation as being created
in the image of God (Gen. 1:27). By adopting the essence of Isaiah
61:1-3, we aim to help the residents realize a “crown of
beauty instead of ashes, the oil of gladness instead of mourning,
and a garment of praise instead of a spirit of despair.”
In this way Avonlea Acres will affect generations.
