The Indiana Youth for Christ Organization reaches young people everywhere, working together with the local churches and other like-minded partners to raise up lifelong followers of Jesus who lead by their godliness in lifestyle, devotion to prayer and the Word of God. The mission of the Chapel Rock Christian Church is to be disciples of Jesus and be in a constant process of becoming whole and helping others in our community do that too.
Given the shortage of items in stores due to the coronavirus, the Officer Breann Leath Memorial Maternal-Child Health Unit has been accepting donations of diapers, wipes, formula, and other baby items. The pregnant women and mothers in the unit have been so overwhelmed by the kindness and generosity of the Indiana Youth for Christ organization and Chapel Rock Christian Church and have made cards of thanks to show their gratitude to the congregation.
The Officer Breann Leath Memorial Maternal-Child Health Unit is a unique experience with the goal of building strong families by allowing eligible incarcerated pregnant mothers to keep their infants with them until release.
