Making a Difference for Foster Care Kids

by | 5 August, 2011 | 0 comments

Students at Journey Christian Church (Midlothian, VA) recently received a grant from The Community Foundation, a local charitable organization, to help kids unable to live with their parents. On Sunday the teens gathered to learn about the problem from area leaders in social work and protective services; after the event Journey distributed empty luggage for the students to fill and return. The bags will be given to children in their county who have been removed from their homes.

“We can make a difference for [foster care] kids in the most vulnerable and tumultuous moments of their lives,” the church writes. “While treating them and their stuff with dignity, we are showing Christ”s love and provision for each of his children.”

Though Errett’s suggestions are nearly 150 years old (originally published on January 2, 1875), we believe his comments are just as valuable today as they were when they were first published.
