East Tennessee Christian Home and Academy

We are in real need of paper towels and garbage bags 13 and 33 gallons if you are out and shopping or would like to do a drive at your church it would be greatly appreciated ! I know many of you use Amazon as well, and have these delivered directly to our ministry
Any at all and in-kind donations, make a huge difference in this ministry.

What a great day of worship with my brothers and sisters in Christ sharing the ETCHA story Arcadia Christian Church, Arcadia Indiana. If you would like Ron to come to your church and share how this wonderful ministry is being blessed please contact us at 423-542-4423

Happy Mother’s Day from these precious daughters! Thankful for the moms-whether aunts, gmas, adoptive, birth, mentors, housemoms, and all women that love daughters/children well. We see you and are grateful for ways you step up and step in to whatever and whoever God calls you to. 🪻🌸🌷🌻🪻🌸🌷🌻

“The Lord bless you and keep you; The Lord make His face shine upon you, And be gracious to you; The Lord lift up His countenance upon you, And give you peace.”
‭‭Numbers‬ ‭6‬:‭24‬-‭26‬

A special thank you to Janet Rice for coming today and doing a growing flowers and plants class for the Academy. “Growing Girls God’s Way”

7 So neither the one who plants nor the one who waters is anything, but only God, who makes things grow. 8 The one who plants and the one who waters have one purpose, and they will each be rewarded according to their own labor. 9 For we are co-workers in God’s service; you are God’s field, God’s building.

Looking for a short term mission or service project for your church or civic group contact Ron at (423) 542-4423 you can be a blessing this year !

Sometimes its the little things that help get you over the hump of the school week…Smoothie Wednesdays are a favorite 💜. Today’s Smoothie: Blueberry Mango 👍🏽

He has risen indeed! He is our hope! He turns our mourning into dancing, makes beauty from ashes and death into life. Jesus, Jesus, Jesus…there is something about that name. ☀️

So thankful for a wonderful weekend at TCTC (Tennessee Christian Teen Convention)! We were challenged to chose Jesus and share Jesus…we were reminded that we are MORE THAN our past, our struggles, or how the world defines us. Thank you to TCTC for providing for ETCHA to go and participate. This weekend is always a highlight for our girls-a great start to 2026!

Happy New Year! ETCHA began in 1946 and is still here in 2026…celebrating our 80th year of serving children and families. 80 years of loving like Jesus and linking arms with YOU to provide hope for the hurting. We look forward to ways we can partner with you this year. We appreciate your prayers as we look ahead to meet the need and glorify God in the mission.
