Alaska Family Council/Action is privileged to pass along the following announcement from the Church of Anchorage regarding an opportunity for church and ministry leaders and families to learn more about the critical need for adopting foster kids here in our state.  

"Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world." James 1:27

God has been moving in people throughout our churches to engage with children in foster care throughout Anchorage.

The Alaska "Fostering Hope Forum" is scheduled for Friday, November 1, 2013 on the campus of Wayland Baptist University in Anchorage. This forum offers something for anyone who is interested in getting information on foster care: Church Ministries, Social Services or families interested in or already serving foster children. This is an exciting opportunity to see how God works through His people to change the trajectory of at-risk children and families.

There will be a special concert by Jimmy Wayne at 7:00 pm following the forum. (Note that the concert will be taking place at Faith Christian Community.)

Please REGISTER yourself and others from your church or organization TODAY! Let's increase the number of church leaders and people in Alaska who are interested in foster parenting, adopting children, and supporting those who do! Let's show how the Church can make a difference in this area.
