FOSTER & ADOPTION
MINISTRY
The Foster and Adoption Ministry seeks to love on foster kids in the OC area.
We believe God’s design has always been for people to be in families. The reality is that in today’s world, relationships fail and families often break apart. While government and private organizations have worked to provide support for kids through the foster care system, we believe the Church – as the family of God – is the best option to meet the needs of these wounded children, with a loving family supported by a church.
THE GOAL: Find a family for every child in OC by 2020 and equip churches to support them.

Support for Foster Families
Raising a child who has come from a hard place can be challenging, but families are much more likely to find success when they have loving support from their church community.
Friends Church is committed to supporting each SafeFamily or foster family, any way we can.
