The foster care ministry team is seeking to take God’s love into broken places by providing love and support to children in the foster care system by educating the church, connecting the church with opportunities, and by providing support for foster and biological families within our church and our community.
PUSH: We are PUSHing out information about the foster care community to educate our people.
The Sound of Hope
On Thursday, July 4, we have the opportunity to view the movie that tells the story of one church and how they changed the face of foster care in their community by stepping up to help vulnerable children. We will meet at AMC Barrett Commons at 12:15 to watch the 12:30 show. The church has pre-purchased 20 tickets. Reserve your ticket(s) below.
