Being a volunteer in the children’s ministry is a great way to reach those children.Ĭreate Wellness Baskets – This last year, we led our community in creating Christmas baskets for foster families who needed help purchasing gifts for their children. There are many children that come into churches that need to know what it means to be loved. Another way to volunteer with your church is through your church’s children’s ministry. Reach out to your church staff members to see what options are available. If you are interested in bringing the community into your loving church, then this might be the option for you. Volunteer with your Church – Many churches have several community outreach events specifically directed towards families and children. Volunteering at these centers can even lead to relationships/friendships with specific individuals or families that you could then influence and assist in future ways. They have several events throughout the year where volunteers are needed. If you are part of our community in Battle Creek, you can check out the Family Enrichment Center ( ). Volunteer at a Local Family Center – In most cities, there is some sort of family center or community center that works with families in need.

The freezer meals that you have prepared ahead of time only last so long! So if you are looking for a way to bless a family’s hearts and stomachs, bring them a meal when they are welcoming a new child into their home or if they are going through a rough patch in their journey. It is difficult finding time and energy to make meals for your family. When a new child enters your home – whether biological, fostered, or adopted – life gets chaotic. Make Meals – I’m sure that every mom reading this can relate to this one. If you would like to hear a personal example of a woman whose life was changed by a family’s financial support through Compassion International, you can listen to Foster the Family’s podcast here. One great organization to consider is Compassion ( ). You can write your child letters and even send them pictures so that they know who is impacting their life and taking care of them from afar. You can even expand on this and get your own children involved with this. Support a Child Internationally – Another way to help children in need is by supporting them financially through an organization that can provide them with safety, food, and education. I know a beautiful family that would love to bring you along their journey. If you would like to help support a family with adoption costs, please contact me. This is a great way to help a child receive a loving home.

If you know of a family who is pursuing either of these options and does not have all of the resources necessary, maybe you are being called to assist them financially. So, it is my hope and prayer that you would read the following possibilities with an open heart and see how God wants to use you to “look after orphans and widows” (James 1:27, NIV).Īssisting a Family with Adoption Costs – Domestic infant adoption and international adoption have a large cost associated with them. By babysitting for a foster family, or helping a family with adoption costs, or praying for a little child you saw in the store, you can help the children out there in need of a loving home. Not everyone is called to the same direction, but we are all called to help those in need. Even touching one child in need, or one single mom in desperation, is making a difference. Carrie Underwood’s song, Change, is a beautiful illustration of how easy it is sometimes to feel like we are literally “fools” for thinking that we can make a change in this big crazy world. If you’re feeling like the world is so big and you can’t make a difference, please stop that thought. If you’re reading these posts, it probably means that you have some sort of interest in fostering/adoption. One of my goals for this blog is to help others become more aware of the need and help you find out how you can step into the waves and make an impact. So you close your eyes, and send up a prayer into the dark The world's so big it can break your heartĪnd you just want to help not sure where to start Love is alive, don't listen to 'em when they say Oh, the smallest thing can make all the difference You're just a fool, just a fool to believe you can change the world
