We know that stepping into foster care seems daunting. There are a lot of questions and "what if's" that can keep us from saying YES. But...what if you didn't need to see the full journey? What if you didn't need to know all the answers and address all the concerns?

When we read Scripture and see God calling His people to action, He often only gives them the first step. He calls them to obedience without revealing His bigger plan.

Is He calling you to take the first step? Is He calling you to trust Him without knowing how everything will turn out?

We know that He is faithful. We know His grace is sufficient. ๐—Ÿ๐—ฒ๐˜ ๐˜๐—ต๐—ฎ๐˜ ๐—ฏ๐—ฒ ๐—ฒ๐—ป๐—ผ๐˜‚๐—ด๐—ต.

Teenagers are growing in independence, but that doesnโ€™t mean theyโ€™re outgrowing their need for connection. Having a safe, supportive caregiver still matters deeply. Building a strong relationship doesnโ€™t always require a big conversation. Sometimes, it happens in the little moments, like saying yes to an expressed need or sharing a hobby.

Below are four simple ways to foster that connection! What other ways do you connect with the teens in your life? Add them in the comments!

๐Ÿ’™ ๐—ฆ๐—ฎ๐˜† ๐˜†๐—ฒ๐˜€. When itโ€™s safe and realistic, say yes when your teen asks for something. The more you say yes and meet their needs, the more they learn to trust and accept love.

๐ŸŽฎ ๐—ง๐—ฎ๐—ธ๐—ฒ ๐Ÿญ๐Ÿฌ. Set aside at least 10 minutes each day to do something your teen enjoys, whether thatโ€™s playing video games, participating in sports, doing each otherโ€™s nails, or simply hanging out. Find ways to enjoy the time and make room for joy and laughter!

๐ŸŽต ๐—๐—ผ๐—ถ๐—ป ๐˜๐—ต๐—ฒ๐—ถ๐—ฟ ๐—ต๐—ผ๐—ฏ๐—ฏ๐—ถ๐—ฒ๐˜€. Invite your teen to teach you about the things they love. Ask them to share their favorite music, games, books, or interests with you.

๐Ÿซถ ๐—–๐—ผ๐—บ๐—บ๐˜‚๐—ป๐—ถ๐—ฐ๐—ฎ๐˜๐—ฒ ๐—ผ๐—ฝ๐—ฒ๐—ป๐—ป๐—ฒ๐˜€๐˜€. Pay attention to their body language, tone, and energy. Mirroring their behavior in subtle ways can communicate acceptance and approachability.

๐—–๐—ฎ๐—น๐—น๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ด ๐—ฎ๐—น๐—น ๐—Ÿ๐—ผ๐—ป๐—ผ๐—ธ๐—ฒ ๐—ฎ๐—ฟ๐—ฒ๐—ฎ ๐—ฝ๐—ฎ๐˜€๐˜๐—ผ๐—ฟ๐˜€ ๐—ฎ๐—ป๐—ฑ ๐—บ๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ถ๐˜€๐˜๐—ฟ๐˜† ๐—น๐—ฒ๐—ฎ๐—ฑ๐—ฒ๐—ฟ๐˜€!Whether foster care is completely new to your church, you've been l...

Whether foster care is completely new to your church, you've been looking for ways to better support foster families, or your congregation has experience that could encourage others, this time of prayer and fellowship is for you!

Join us for a complimentary breakfast as we gather with pastors and ministry leaders from across our community for a morning of prayer, fellowship, and partnership in foster care ministry.

What if a childโ€™s challenging behavior is actually a sign that they need to feel safe, known, and loved?

Many children in our communities have experienced trauma that can impact the way they connect with others. As churches welcome children into classrooms, youth groups, and ministries, church staff and volunteers have the opportunity to respond with empathy, patience, and consistency.

๐Ÿ’™ ๐—Ÿ๐—ผ๐˜ƒ๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ด ๐—ž๐—ถ๐—ฑ๐˜€ ๐˜„๐—ถ๐˜๐—ต ๐—–๐—ต๐—ฎ๐—น๐—น๐—ฒ๐—ป๐—ด๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ด ๐—•๐—ฒ๐—ต๐—ฎ๐˜ƒ๐—ถ๐—ผ๐—ฟ๐˜€ is a trauma-informed training designed to equip churches with practical tools and insights to:

โœจ Prioritize connection over correction
โœจ Understand how trauma impacts children
โœจ Recognize when a child is feeling unsafe and experiencing dysregulation
โœจ Implement trauma-sensitive strategies to help these children thrive
โœจ Foster curiosity, compassion, and connection in your interactions with children

When churches are prepared to care well, they become powerful places of healing and hope. The CALL is here to help make that possible.

If your church would like to bring this kind of training to your team, contact The CALL in your area to learn more: https://thecallinarkansas.org/contact

Back-to-school season brings new routines, busy evenings, and full calendars for every family. For foster families, those adjustments can also come with additional appointments, transitions, and the needs of children who may be navigating a season of change.

If you know a foster family in your community, a small act of support can make a big difference during this season. We've got a few ideas to get you started!

๐Ÿ Drop off a warm meal for dinner
๐Ÿผ Offer to babysit
๐Ÿš™ Run an errand or two around town
๐Ÿ“š Help with homework
๐Ÿ“ž Check in with foster parents

Every family's needs are different, and what feels like a small gesture to you may provide exactly the encouragement they need.

๐Ÿ’™ Foster and adoptive parents: What has been the most meaningful way someone has supported your family during the back-to-school season? Share your ideas in the commentsโ€”we'd love to learn from you!
