A Message From Heather Pionke
This is my first year back atLLH. I had worked here previously for almost 11 year on the DC side. Istarted here when school was over here in the old building in the Yellow Class.I fell in love with LLH! I watched miracles take place in children that hadbeen told by doctors that they would never do something. I had thehumbling privileged to be a part of the group of teachers that brainstormed,and asked for God’s guidance, as we help design what are now the DC classrooms.Beneath, the walls of the DC, before the sheetrock went on the walls, I washere when we wrote scripture on the framing. I taught in the new DC, as Godcontinued to prove He was bigger than any doctor, and my students continued toachieve amazing things! Now, I have returned to FLC 😊

In Support of Little Light House
Little Light House is a Christian Developmental Center for Children with Special Needs from birth to 6 years old. Tulsa’s Little Light House is internationally recognized as providing some of the most individualized special education and therapeutic early intervention services in the world. A trans-disciplinary team approach maximizes a comprehensive knowledge from professionals who work collaboratively to design prescriptive programs for each child and assist every child in reaching their maximum potential. Through a variety of programs and schedules, these services are carried out by highly credentialed teachers, therapists, and specialists who represent decades of pediatric experience. Early Intervention classes are provided as a part-time program where caregivers attend and learn along with their child for two-hour classes once a week.
Little Light House is tuition-free for families and does not receive government or United Way funding. Support comes from individuals, organizations, corporations, and foundations. In addition, LLH hosts four annual fundraisers each year bringing in about 40% of the $4.2 million dollar operating cost that allows our staff of over 90 members to provide services to over 300 children and families, support nearly a thousand volunteers, and train over 1,000 college and career students each year.
Little Light House believes that all children are a gift from God with the potential to achieve specific milestones to advance their quality of life. We strive for excellence by utilizing a Bible-based curriculum in a fun and loving atmosphere. We believe in an individualized, trans-disciplinary and God-centered approach to education-an approach that joins parents, professionals, and the Holy Spirit as partners in order to nurture the spirit, mind, and body of the children and their families. Our commitment incorporates being called to work/volunteer with children with special needs. Little Light House encourages a positive outlook on the future, based on trust in a loving heavenly Father.
