Every day more than 50 children are taken into care in the UK. Some of them need a temporary home in an emergency until they can return to their families. Others need a permanent home with a new forever family.
Home for Good aims to make adopting and fostering a part of a churches life and ministry. It is a fantastic opportunity for the Church to be good news in society, change our communities and transform the lives of some of the most vulnerable children in the UK.
At Stour Valley Vineyard Church on Sunday 6 November we will be putting a spotlight on fostering and adoption in Suffolk and how we as a church can help to support the work of Home for Good.
Home for Good are hoping that over 200 churches will take the opportunity during this years Adoption Sunday to pray for the foster carers and adoptive families, raise awareness of the 6,000 children waiting for adoption, and celebrate our adoption into God’s family.
In the mean time if you would like to find out more about Home for Good follow the link to their web page or speak to Paul & Louise Bunton.
