Adoption & Foster Care
Because God graciously adopted us into his family through Jesus, we hope to reflect God's heart through adoption and foster care. Our ministry team prayerfully supports and equips families by walking alongside them through all stages of adoption and foster care. This page is for those interested in adopting and/or fostering as well as those interested in playing a supporting role. We each have a vital part to play in the Biblical mandate to care for vulnerable children.
“Religion that is pure and undefiled before God, the Father, is this: to visit orphans and widows in their affliction, and to keep oneself unstained from the world.”
- James 1:27

It’s required that any adoptive or foster home have a fire extinguisher prior to the placement of a child. Richardson Fire Equipment (not affiliated with Richardson Fire Department) has generously stepped up support these families through the donation of a free fire extinguisher.

Foster parents have ever-changing needs based on the children currently in their care. Foster closets alleviate some of that burden by providing donated items to foster parents.
