Each of you should use whatever gifts you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God’s grace in its various forms.
— 1 Peter 4:10
 

Most children who have been removed from their biological parents have experienced harmful abuse or neglect that can have a lasting impact on their lives. They need a safe, loving family to take care of them as well as a team of dedicated people willing to invest in their lives.

 

Foster & Adoptive Families

We believe that it is crucial for foster and adoptive families to be a part of a strong, supportive community to help with the unique challenges that they face as parents of children from hard places. If you are interested in joining our Legacy Family, please contact us. We would love to connect with you!

SUPPORT, EQUIP, and CONNECT you with other families!

BIRTHDAY CARDS

We partner with churches, small groups, and families to make handmade cards for children in foster and adoptive homes. Getting a card in the mail is often a novel experience for many of the children we support. It’s a fun surprise that lets them know we are thinking about them on their special day. Cards include a $2 bill!

FAMILY SUPPORT NIGHT

Being a foster or adoptive parent can be both rewarding and challenging. We want families to know that they are not alone on this journey. We offer monthly support groups for training, encouragement, and prayer.  Our hope is for families to feel uplifted, more informed, and better equipped to provide for their children’s unique needs. Dinner and childcare are provided. Training certificates for continuing education are also offered.

FREE! FAMILY! FUN!

We host special events designed to help strengthen families while having fun! Our hope is to help parents provide opportunities for their children to make positive memories, grow in their relationships with their foster or adoptive family, and to connect with other children in similar situations.

BLESSING BAGS

When children are removed from their homes, they receive a black trash bag to quickly collect what few belongings they can before the police or caseworker takes them to a safe place. We work to bless children in the midst of their trauma with a Blessing Bag filled with all new items that they left home without. Items such as pajamas, toiletries, underwear, socks, blanket, stuffed animal and more are all provided. They are given to children as they are placed into their new foster home.

If you are a foster parent or caseworker in need of a Blessing Bag for a child in care, please click on the link below.

The-church

The Church

We partner with local churches to serve children in foster and adoptive homes. We believe not all churches are called to serve in the exact same way, but each church should strive to meet a specific need based on the strengths of their church. By doing so, we can work together across denominational lines to make a huge impact on our community.
