Supporting Foster Care and Adoptive Families
Springs of Love is a National Catholic organization that promotes and supports Foster Care and Adoptive Families. The need for Foster Care and Adoptive Families is huge and the success of those families is much improved when they have a community to support them. The Springs of Love Chapter here at Nativity of Our Lord is hoping to become a blanket of love and support around existing Foster and Adoptive families here in our Nativity of Our Lord community. If you are interested in praying for families, providing for material needs (i.e. clothes, diapers, furniture), a warm meal, or respite care for a couple to have a date night, this is the group for you.
