Fostering as One
Mission Georgia Prayer Guide:
Mark 10:16 NIV “And he took the children in his arms, placed his hands on them and blessed them.”
Pray for more families in Georgia to open their homes to kids in foster care, both for respite and long-term care. Pray for 400 children who are housed in hotels each night in Georgia. Pray that they will have supportive relationships until they can return to their family or be placed in a foster home. Ask the Lord to strengthen case workers who serve many children. Ask the Lord to send more people into this unique mission field of work.

What Drives Us
Our Mission
Those who are called to be Foster Parents/Families need much support. It is a special type of service to not only our local children, but also our community. Our mission at Fostering As One is “To come alongside foster and adoptive families through the encouragement and support of the Body of Christ.” We appreciate our church family’s prayers for these children and all the people who work with them.
