👋 Meet Ginny, our new Program Coordinator! 🎉

We’re so excited to welcome Ginny Spahr to the Fostering Faith team. Her personal experience as a foster, adoptive, & guardianship parent gives her a unique heart for supporting foster families. We’re grateful to have her serving alongside us!

Here’s a little about Ginny and how God led her to Fostering Faith:

“Hi! I am so excited to be working with Fostering Faith! There is no question in my mind that God led me here.

After 13 years of welcoming children from foster care into our home, my husband and I felt it was time for a break. Yet we knew we still wanted to be involved in foster care somehow. Just hours after praying about what God had next for our family, I received an email about the Program Coordinator position. I knew God had answered our prayer, and I applied that same day!

My husband and I have been married for 26 years and have the privilege of parenting eight children through biological, foster, adoptive, & guardianship relationships. Our family’s story has taught me that a child’s history does not define their future, and I’m so thankful God has allowed us to be part of each of their stories.

Fostering Faith has been such a blessing to our family. As a foster parent, the gift of weekly respite gave us time to invest in our marriage and family. I’m now thrilled to have the opportunity to offer that same gift to other foster families who are doing the hard work of caring for children.

I’m incredibly grateful to be part of Fostering Faith and excited to see all that God is doing through this ministry!”

🤝 11 monthly partners → Goal: 20 by September 30!

Russ & Dawn Verbrugge have seen firsthand the impact of Fostering Faith:

"We first heard about Fostering Faith on Mother’s Day prior to the start of the program and God touched our hearts. After meeting with Jesseca and praying about how to best support this much needed ministry, Dawn decided to volunteer on the curriculum team and as a program facilitator. Shortly after the program began, we started supporting the ministry financially as well.

Over time, Dawn’s health prevented her from helping physically, but we are honored to continue supporting in other ways. It is easy to set up monthly giving of any amount, and the funds are used with wisdom and discernment.

The joy we’ve seen on the faces of so many children who come to eat, play and learn is a bonus to volunteering, and the gratitude of those fostering these precious children is sincere. Monthly giving to Fostering Faith is truly an investment in the Kingdom of God."
