​BECOME A JAMES 1.27 CHURCH

A James 1.27 church is a church where:

• Caring for vulnerable children is part of the church culture
• Everyone in the congregation is consistently reminded to care for vulnerable children
• Foster, kinship and adoptive families find encouragement and practical support
• Children who have experienced trauma, grief and loss can grow into the people God designed them to be

How can Project 1.27 help:

• Provide information about foster care, kinship and adoption
• Support development of a foster, kinship and adoption ministry
• Offer foster, kinship, adoption friendly church designation so your church can be easily identified by those families
• Offer biblically based, state approved certification training
• Provide ongoing support and encouragement to ministry leaders and families
