CANCELLED: Business Before Hours: Mountain States Children's Home
For you early risers, here is your opportunity to network before work and enjoy a delicious breakfast while visiting a variety of businesses throughout Longmont.
Mountain States Children's Home: The beginning of Mountain States Children’s Home takes us back to 1960 when a group of men were led to start an incredible journey.
As with most great endeavors, when traced back to the very beginning, Mountain States Children’s Home began as a dream, nurtured initially by one individual. Elmer L. Richards served the West Cedar Church of Christ which was a small congregation in Denver of modest means but devout in its service to the Lord.
It had been Elmer Richards’ responsibility to work with the wayward youth. After taking children to children’s homes in other states, Elmer Richards presented a dream to the elders of establishing a Colorado Children’s Home. He saw an urgent need to serve the community’s children and families. From the planting of that small “mustard seed,” a plan began to grow. The elders; Bernard A. Byerley, James R. Harris, John C. Lewis, Elmer R. Richards, and James H. Sims, Sr. accepted this bold idea, taking on the challenge with a strong commitment to help children.
