我们的信仰传统
Since 1890, a local church community responded to the needs of children and families in our region. Upon founding an orphanage known as the Deaconess Home of the Methodist Episcopal Church, 牧师的传统开始了. 后来又有一个类似的机构加入了这个组织, also founded by caring Christians and known as the Protestant Home of Unprotected Children. Today, Gateway Longview continues our rich heritage of holistically caring for the needs of young people and their families by providing a spectrum of highly specialized care and treatment programs.
