Foster Care
Serving the vulnerable through the mobilization of our church body towards foster care
Currently, there are 1,400+ children in foster care within Travis, Williamson, and Hays counties, and the Church has a vital role to play through supporting roles and as licensed foster parents.
Foster care and adoption are both beautiful and biblical expressions of God caring for the vulnerable, but they are different and should be entered into with discernment alongside biblical community.
Whether you are curious or just starting the process of becoming a licensed foster parent, or are currently licensed - we are here to help. Fill out our form below to connect with our team.
Foster Parents' Night Out
A few times throughout the year we host Foster Parents' Night Out, a fun-filled evening for kiddos, so parents can enjoy a few hours of kidless freedom. See when our next event is scheduled and register your child or sign up as a volunteer to help with childcare.
foster care resources
We want to support families in caring for children from hard places, create awareness within our church about the needs and challenges surrounding foster care, and show our church body how their family and home can tangibly serve the vulnerable.
