Founded in 1966, Calvary Children's Home is a home for children in the Metro Atlanta area that need to live apart from their families. We provide a safe, loving, Christian home for these children while providing them with a stable home life. We strive to give the children entrusted in our care the very best skills, education, and values so that they may become responsible, productive members of society. Attending church, local schools, and participating in after school and community activities provide a sense of normalcy and give our children experience in the real world.Ben F. TurnerIn 1965, a horrible tragedy struck the Smyrna, Georgia community when a husband and wife were killed in an automobile accident, leaving their six children without a home. As it is extremely hard for any family to take in six children at once, the siblings were separated and placed between four different families within the community.The late Reverend Ben F. Turner (1927 – 2006) was with the siblings as they were being separated and saw the mental and emotional impact it was having on the children; the siblings wanted to stay together. The Reverend realized the tremendous need for the siblings to stay together, especially after losing both parents . . . "If children can't have the love and guidance of parents, they should at least be able to live together as brothers and sisters. If I could build a home large enough, I could keep all the children of one family together." The story of these siblings was the catalyst for the creation of the Calvary Children's Home in 1966.
