Care Groups

Mondays  |  9:30 - 11:30 AM
Beginning August 19

This is a support group for families who are fostering, have adopted, or are waiting to adopt. We will read a devotional surrounding adoption or foster care each week and break into small groups for discussion. We aim to support, pray for, encourage, and point each other towards Christ in this lifelong journey of caring for children from hard places. The content stands alone week to week, so we encourage anyone to come whenever they are able.

Questions? Contact Chante Hensley at cladage111@yahoo.com or Mary Stump at thechippercup@gmail.com.
