May is National Foster Care Month
Help Sponsor a Foster Child
Coming
into foster care can be a difficult and traumatic experience for
children. They often have been exposed to abuse or neglect. They are
children that desperately need to hear the message of God's love for
them. During the month of May, we will be teaming up with Lutheran
Social Services of Michigan
to help send foster children to Living Water Ministries camp. This is
an opportunity for the children to learn about God's love for them and
that they are not alone in their day to day trials. Many siblings are
often separated through foster care placement and Lutheran Social
Ministries can rejoin these siblings during their one week at camp.
During
the entire month of May we will be working to collect monetary
donations and camping supplies needed to support this important mission
for the children. In May, we will have handouts & more
announcements detailing how you could help. Together, we can make a
real difference for our brothers and sisters in foster care!!
