Bethany has a long history of serving, loving, and ministering to those in the foster care system in our community. In line with this, we have started a new ministry called Foster The City, so that as a church we can go deeper in serving both the children in foster care in our community, and the families providing it.
Our county DCFS office has been reaching out to local churches and faith-based communities for help because the crisis is only growing. Our hope is to step up and help in Christ's name by serving and caring for the most vulnerable in our community. Maybe some of you are called to open up your home to a child in crisis through providing foster care. However, for many of us, a more practical step is wrapping love and support around a foster family. Foster the City equips us to do just that. We are creating teams of support friends that will provide tangible and spiritual support to foster families. Support friends wrap the foster families in our church with love and care, so they know they are not alone!
If you are a Foster Family at Bethany, would you please allow us to support you? Or, if you would like to support a foster family, please get involved in Bethany's Foster The City ministry! Email Pastor Dave Darjany for more info at .
