Together at Dawson

Preschoolers and their families are invited to a superhero-themed evening of worship and fellowship. We’ll begin in the Chapel at 5:00 p.m. Once children have decorated and put on their superhero costumes (provided), we’ll enjoy a time of family worship and then move outside for fun activities including an obstacle course, inflatables, crafts, and snow cones. Each family will receive a “Family Faith Talk” kit before leaving so everyone  can continue to learn at home how to be kind helpers like God’s Son, Jesus.

Whether you're a seasoned foster parent or just beginning your fostering journey, Fostering Faithfully is a support group that provides foster parents the opportunity to walk alongside each other offering support, sharing resources, and building a community within our church. Our focus will be to equip foster parents with practical strategies for managing the unique needs of children in our homes, seek biblical wisdom and guidance in navigating the complexities of foster care, and encourage and uplift one another through the challenges and triumphs of fostering. Together, let’s lean on God’s grace and support one another as we strive to foster faithfully. Join us on April 17 and May 22 at 6:00 p.m. in Room 254 North.
