Abide

At Abide, we want to present our guests with opportunities to connect with others, learn, and rest. Abide is designed to serve foster, adoptive, and kinship parents (both current and awaiting placement).

At this free event, you will eat a delicious lunch with other parents like you and listen to an encouraging word from our main speaker. You can stop by our delicious candy bar and coffee cart throughout the day. We will also offer a variety of breakout sessions. We hope this is a time to remember to abide in Jesus, your strength and hope, as you persevere in the hard work of foster care and adoption.

We are also offering free childcare at Abide for children from birth to 5th grade. Please register at for childcare.
