FOSTERING HOPE

WANT MORE INFO

As of March 2023, there are 779 children in foster care in 7 surrounding counties of Oronogo, MO.

One of the clearest calls in Scripture is to care for the vulnerable.
Though not everyone may be called to be a foster parent, there are countless ways you can love and support those in the foster care system.

Become a Foster Parent

There are hundreds of kids in our community who have been removed from their parents due to abuse or neglect and are in need of a family to welcome them into their home. This is an incredible way to share the love and hope of Jesus with a child in their time of greatest need.

Supervised Visits

Most kids in foster care get a two-hour visit every week with their biological parents. Every Tuesday night, we host these visits and provide volunteers to serve as the supervisors.

Care Community

Not everyone is called to become a foster parent, but there are tons of ways you can support those who are. Join a Care Community and rally around a foster family by providing meals, babysitting, emotional support, and so much more.

Volunteer

We have a number of amazing foster care organizations in our community. Sign up to volunteer on a regular basis or at one-time events.
