Founded in the compassionate tradition of the United Methodist Church in Arkansas, Methodist Family Health has, in its heart, remained a ministry.
Even though we have incorporated as a stand-alone, nonprofit organization, our roots and daily mission are still firmly planted in service.
Pastoral care at Methodist Family Health provides spiritual care for all clients, staff and families across our continuum of care. We offer weekly small groups and bible studies for a variety of age groups as well as one-on-one counseling and pastoral support.
We also collaborate with our mental health and recreational therapists, behavioral instructors and other staff to provide supportive care. And, we engage with volunteers and local churches to offer programs and support to children and teens across Arkansas.
Prayer
Add our kids and their families to your prayer lists at church and remember them as you pray.
Spirituality Services
Share your talents in any way you are led to provide. This can include music, devotionals, games, dramas, snacks – the list is nearly endless. Spirituality Services can be customized to match your mission, gifts and talents.
Come make a child’s day! We need fun-loving and caring groups to spend time with kids and teens at Methodist Family Health. Find more info in our Pastoral Care Volunteers Request (PDF). Ready to volunteer? Fill out our online registration.
Bible Bounty
A gift of a paperback Bible and spiritual study guide is waiting for every child, teen and mother who enters the Methodist Family Health continuum of care. These books are made possible by our Children’s Bible Fund, which is an integral part of our spirituality program.
Find more information and a list of books used by those in our care, visit our Bible Bounty page.
Mission & Volunteer Opportunies
Funding is always needed to help provide for the spiritual needs of our patients. Your congregation or group can pledge to donate funds to purchase bibles and spiritual study materials. You also can organize your church to provide a pancake breakfast, chili cook-off or grill hot dogs for a picnic for any of the kids in our care.
Visit our Mission & Volunteer Opportunities page for more ideas.
