We (at Tapestry) have the privilege of talking with dozens of churches across the country who want to learn more about starting and growing adoption and foster care ministries. As we talk with them it seems that they all have similar questions – questions about what does an adoption and foster care ministry look like, what does it do and how do you create events and opportunities that allow people to find the information, encouragement and connections they need for the journey.
In response to these questions we offered a breakout presentation at Summit V entitled Practical Ideas for Church Adoption & Foster Care Ministries. In this session we detailed how we and others have developed and implemented various events and activities designed to serve the needs of parents and children alike in the context of a local church ministry.
You can listen to the audio of this session (mp3 file – it will take several seconds to download) and download the handout materials. You can also purchase the CD for this session (and other Summit V sessions).
In addition, watch this video to catch a glimpse of what a church adoption and foster care ministry can look like – and imagine the possibilities for your church and your community.
