Orphan Care and Adoption
This is pure and undefiled religion in the sight of our God and Father, to visit orphans and widows in their distress, and to keep oneself unstained by the world.
James 1:27
At ACF we embrace the scriptural mandate to care for the orphan. With millions of orphans in our world today we believe it is the responsibility of every believer to play a part in the fight to protect and provide for the fatherless.
What a blessing it would be to see the entire ACF body engaged in reaching out to orphans locally, nationally, and around the world. What if the streets were cleared and the devastating numbers came down because the Church responded to God's mandate? Will you be a part of caring and providing for the orphaned and ultimately sharing the hope that you have in Jesus Christ?
ACF has three basic objectives in its endeavor to minister to the orphan:
Education about the scriptural message and mandate on behalf of the orphan, the status of orphans in the world today and how we can each participate in orphan care. (click here to learn more)
Engagement in opportunities as God moves people at ACF to get involved in caring for orphans, adopting and fostering. (click here to learn more)
Community for people who are invested in serving orphans through orphan care, foster care, or adoption. We want to provide encouragement and support for those on the front lines. (click here to learn more)
