Stephens County Family Connection Stephens.gafcp.org
Stephens County Family Connection works diligently in the community to
help connect the children and families in the community to resources
available in the community. We are always keeping track of the latest data
and information on our community to help connect those working in the
community with the latest needs here. That’s where the church comes in.
Stephens County is blessed to have over 300 amazing churches in this
community. And, our community relies on the church to help meet some of
our biggest needs.
We would love to help connect your church with different ministries and
opportunities to serve this community. Tugalo Baptist Association has been
wonderful about sharing information and we are grateful for the partnership
between the church and our community.
Different areas to help:
Foster Care Ministry- Has your church thought about serving the least of
these by serving those in foster care? There are many different ways to get
involved including hosting a care community, hosting the foster parent
association for a monthly meeting, or even providing thank you gifts for
foster homes. No investment is too small.
Mentoring- Family Connection hosts a mentoring program through the
system and we are ALWAYS looking for mentors. We would love to share with
your church or groups about how easy it is to become a mentor but how
impactful it is to students who need a stable adult. One hour, one time a
week, for one school year is all it take.
First Steps- We also offer a program for moms in Stephens County who have
children between the ages of 0-5. We strive to provide them with referrals
and resources so they can be prepared to parent their children. If you would
like to provide diapers/wipes or other items please let us know!
Trainings- We also are working hard to make sure our churches and
organizations are up to date on how to protect our children. We offer
Darkness to Light training for churches on how to prevent child sexual abuse.
And, beyond all of this, if your church has a ministry that God has been laying
n front of you, please share it with me and I will do my best to connect you to
people that are in need of that and help get the word out! We believe that
together we all can make more of an impact than we can alone!
