You are invited to our Annual Fundraising Dinner and Auction on April 19th, at the Dallas Westin City Center.  

This is our one big event of the year as far as coming together to raise funds specifically for the Heartlight residential program.  We do so through a Silent and Live Auction, as well as through sponsorships of tables at the event. MORE OF THIS ARTICLE >>>

It is Christmas Eve and we just received an unsolicited letter from a recent Heartlight graduate…a girl Mark once dubbed, “The angriest child I have ever met.” We can’t think of a better Christmas gift and wanted to share it with you as well!  With all our love, Jan and Mark

Hi Jan & Mark:

First, I know I didn’t really thank you guys a lot when I left, it was so unreal - that graduation dinner. Coming to Texas and being looked after by everyone, the talks with the counselors, and especially Susan and you made me finally feel the love and attention that I shut out for so long.

Dear Friends,

I’m excited to make our latest newsletter available to you via electronic means. Sending it this way saves postage and printing costs, allowing more funds to be applied toward helping parents and teenagers in crisis.

It also gives me the chance to share with you how God is using Heartlight to change the lives of hurting kids and keep you updated on a more regular basis.

For many families, Heartlight is their last resort in a never-ending cycle of pain and confusion. On their behalf, we thank you for helping underwrite some of the costs to give kids and parents physical, emotional, and spiritual support in their time of need.  MORE OF THIS ARTICLE >>>

Over the years Heartlight has become one of the finest residential Christian counseling centers of its kind, with an added national outreach to families that includes publishing, radio, internet and live and recorded seminars.

Heartlight is firmly attached to its mission – helping families with teens who struggle. Some of the new opportunities for Heartlight include the development of the Heartlight Radio program, growing weekly, with new networks and stations adding Heartlight to their air-time schedule every week.

Mark Gregston’s new book, When Your Teen is Struggling, released in January, was chosen as a premier Harvest House publication and is now already scheduled for a second printing.  Mark has started work on his second book, The Many Faces of Rebellion. MORE OF THIS ARTICLE >>>

After 20 years of wear and tear on the Guy’s Main House, the Heartlight Foundation Board has decided to remodel the 6,000 square foot house into an Educational and Recreational building. This facility will then become the center for academic classrooms and recreational opportunities at Heartlight. We will convert the existing brick structure into a log home, allowing it to fit the rustic motif of the rest of the buildings on the Heartlight property. MORE OF THIS ARTICLE >>>
