SO EXCITED for this new ministry at our church!

Foster Care, the forgotten child, and orphans have always been an issue that has stirred something inside of me, hurt my heart and just something I am passionate about. As we became more serious about becoming foster parents we heard from other people in our classes that their home church was huge part of their support system. And it was hard for me to understand how our amazing church had not taken on this huge issue of foster care or at least have a support group or something for those families that fostered. But so cool how God answered that prayer for me and probably so many others but He did not just answer that prayer He multiplied it. CCV has decided that one of the goals of 2013 is to start a large foster care ministry, to help families get through the process of considering being foster/adoptive parents to actually doing it. And then ultimately, eventually clear out the foster care shelters, group homes, and have a home for each child in need. The numbers just keep increasing and there is such a shortage of homes to where these children can go. I am praying that Tony and I can find time in our busy lives to help in any way we can to help get this ministry going, help families that are new to fostering feel supported, or help them through the process. Prayers that this ministry will change foster care in Phoenix forever!
