Family Support Ministry

Leading Families Towards Hope, Encouragement, and Community. Showing them they are not alone in this Journey, by being the hands and feet of Christ as the Church.

The vision

To create a culture within the church where Foster and Adoptive families, Single Mothers, Families with medical needs, and more, are surrounded by consistent, dependable support. So that no family needs to walk this journey alone.

the church's role

The Church has a unique opportunity and biblical calling to provide encouragement, support, and community, rather than responding only in crises, we can establish ongoing relationships that strenghen families over time. When the church shows up consistently, families don’t just recieve practical help, they experience belonging, and more importantly the love of God made real through his people.

WHY?

ALL TO GLORIFY GOD!
This is not a ministry built on compassion alone, though compassion matters deeply. It is not Built on statistics or need alone, though the need is real. This ministry exists because God is glorified when his people reflect his heart towards those in need.
