After hearing the presentation on SFFC I could not get the idea that I could become involved with this program thorough my church which I am already very involved and like to connect my service learning activities to community activities that I am involved with through my church.
I plan to discuss the concept of the SFFC program with my pastor and arrange for the presenter to come to a board meeting at the church and share this information with the board to gain support for beginning a connection through our church. I am a member of the board so feel very comfortable visiting with the pastor about this opportunity and share my ideas with him. I find it amazing that our daughter church is participating in the program and one of our church members is hosting a child right now through a connection with our daughter church. Our pastor has a focus on community and showing God's love to our community so I cannot believe that he has not already been presented with some of this information but I am willing to step out in faith and see what happens.
Being an adopted child and having an adopted son makes the SFFC program a deeper passion and interest for me. I would love to be able to help a family in crisis by watching their children while they have time to sort things out. I would love to be a mentor to them and provide support as able with other members of my church family.
I plan to discuss with my pastor this weekend and will update my blog with the results. I will continue to pray that God continues to open doors of opportunities for me as I continue to grow in my DNP journey.
