Michael Monroe married his high school sweetheart, Amy, and together they have four children – Miles, Grant, Kate and Carter – each of whom were adopted.
He and Amy lead a ministry at Irving Bible Church (Irving, Texas) called Tapestry. It is a ministry for adoptive and foster families and they truly enjoy serving and being a part of this community of families.
By day, Michael is an attorney for a private oil and gas company. Amy is a former elementary school teacher and now has a more than full–time job keeping up with their kids and keeping the Monroe household functioning well. But one of their greatest passions is sharing with others the blessings they have experienced first–hand through the miracle of adoption.
The DFW Alliance was organized in early 2006 to bring together local church adoption and orphan care ministries from various Christian churches in the Dallas/Ft. Worth area. It was founded by Tapestry, a ministry for adoptive and foster families at Irving Bible Church in Irving, Texas, and “His Child” Orphan Care Ministry at Christ Chapel Bible Church in Ft. Worth, Texas.
The DFW Alliance seeks to provide area ministries and church leaders with opportunities to share ideas and coordinate and collaborate on events and activities to serve adoptive and foster families as well as orphans, at-risk children and children in the local foster care system. The DFW Alliance also focuses on efforts to create and support effective local church adoption, foster care and orphan care ministries across the Dallas/Fort Worth area.
