The Foster Care and Adoption Ministry supports adoptive and foster families, by offering encouragement, material help, and prayers. We also support parents reuniting with their children who have been in foster care. Here are some examples of things we do:
We put together care packages of toys, gift cards, and self care items, for families reuniting, after the children have been in foster care.
We deliver groceries, meals, and gift cards, to foster and adoptive families, who are struggling.
We help with Henrico County's Foster Parents Night Out, which gives busy foster parents a break.
We provide Easter baskets for foster children.
We sponsor a yearly school supply drive, for area foster children.

Our Ministry received so many school supply donations...3 big carloads!!! Half of the donations were given to Commonwealth Catholic Charities. The rest were distributed to Henrico Department of Social Services for the Foster Parents Night Out. So many children will be able to have their school supplies for this coming school year! Thank you for your generosity!
