Prayers for foster, adoptive and biological families.
Families that are called to serve our community by fostering or adopting children are in desperate need of prayer. Children who have been taken from their homes need help navigating trauma and loss. Parents and siblings are sometimes stretched thin while trying to adjust and make their new situations work, all while attempting to navigate a messy and broken system. The best way you can support them is through prayer.
Pray for foster & adoptive children
Pray that God would lead them as they work through hurt they have experienced in their past and in their present.
Pray that children in your community would know they are loved by God and understand that He desires to be in relationship with them.
Pray that children in foster care would experience a feeling of belonging in a foster family, a church community, or a group of friends within your community.
Pray for biological families
Pray that biological parents in our community would have the strength they need to face their circumstances and that they always keep the best interests of their children in mind.
Pray for the relationships between biological parents, foster parents, and the foster care system; that biological parents feel heard and that others are able to extend compassion.
Pray that churches in your community learn how to support biological families and how to equip them to prepare for reunification with their children.
Pray for foster & adoptive families
Pray for endurance and for strength for foster parents in your community as they invite children into their families.
Pray that your community would rise up and stand by these parents while encouraging and supporting their needs.
Pray for peace and understanding in every relationship — with the foster children, with their biological children, with the biological families of the foster children, with social workers, and with their community.
