Want to learn more about becoming a foster parent?


Restore's Foster & Adopt 101 Workshop is designed to offer honest and transparent answers to your most pressing questions while teaching the basics of the foster care process.


Here’s what won’t happen:

You won't be judged. We have heard every question and concern before and we’ve probably thought it ourselves.

You won't be pressured. We understand that a session like this is simply part of the discovery process.

You won't be rushed. While you will have the opportunity to move forward, the decision is entirely yours!


Here's what will happen:

You will get all your questions answered, in your group or privately.

You will leave with an understanding of the process.

You will be so glad you followed the nudge to attend.


Join Pastor Curtis after service on Sunday, May 19 for this class.

Lunch and childcare are provided!

Are you looking for other ways to serve?

At The Restore Network, we know that the thought of children hurting is unbearable to you. You may not be in a position to foster a child yourself, but you have to do something.


The Restore Network was created to help the church work together to respond to the needs of vulnerable children. We simply aren’t all called to foster, but we each have a part to play in the solution to a problem that we can solve. Providing critical support to foster families as a volunteer allows more of them to open their homes to the kids who need them.


As a volunteer, you make it possible for children to know that they are secure, loved, and wanted.


You can help children heal.
