Just Call Granny is a nonprofit organization that is an outreach ministry of Smith Memorial United Methodist Church. The ministry provides support to Grandfamilies and Kinship Families in Martinsville and Henry County. The focus of the ministry is fostering relationships with Grandfamilies and Kinship families by providing monthly Conversation–Coffee meetings at New College Institute and a 24-hour helpline service. The monthly support meetings offer Grandfamilies and Kinship families information about resources in the community as well as a nurturing space where fellowship and encouragement of one another are provided.
The Just Call Granny 24-hour helpline is run by volunteers who offer Grandparents and Kinship families a listening ear, encouragement and understanding of the responsibilities of parenting, information about resources in the community, and prayer. We are not a counseling service, but we are here to listen, help, and be your village. Contact Just Call Granny at 276-734-3331 or follow us on Facebook, Just Call Granny Ministry.
