Jackson County Retired School Personnel organization maintains a motto “learn more to do more”, and the February 17, 2025, gathering will provide an ample opportunity for that theory to become action. The group’s program will come from the Director of STCH Ministries Homes for Families, Mrs. Theresa Klacman. The Homes for Family ministry is located in rural Goliad on 637 acres, and is dedicated to “healing, restoring and transforming lives”. They impact children and families lives daily, a mission that began in 1952.
