Foster Care Community Info Gathering

Learn more about how you or your group can help support a foster family. Food will be provided. We have had a successful year supporting a foster family who adopted a child. We want to expand our care and wrap God’s family around another foster family. This is a vital ministry and you can get involved. The families who have partnered together to serve a foster family contribute in a small way a couple times a month to lift a small burden off of the foster family.

Register to let us know you’ll be there!

Substitute Teacher and Volunteer Info Huddle

Substitute Teacher and Volunteer Info Huddle

We have listened to administrators and teachers and we believe the best way we can serve our schools is by serving those who are serving our students. Many of our educators and school staff have had to go above and beyond over the last two years with staff numbers at all-time lows.

One of the best ways we can show our school staff that we see them and value them is by serving alongside them. Prayerfully consider volunteering at a local school or becoming a substitute teacher. There is a large deficit of substitute teachers in Leavenworth County.

We will host an Information Huddle with Amy Jo Troyer, of the Leavenworth School District, on October 29 at 1:00pm at Westside Leavenworth in The Loft.
