LEAD PASTORS'

FAMILY PRESERVATION LUNCHEON

October 15th, 11am- 1:30pm

Join other church leaders who want the local church to lead in family preservation in the greater Charlotte area. Come grow a movement with us!

We believe the local church can visibly reduce the number of children unnecessarily entering foster care in our city. Lead Pastors: we need your voice and leadership in this ministry of family preservation.


This luncheon will bring together church leaders whose congregations are already keeping families intact and others who are just beginning to explore gospel-centered family preservation. We will explore a vision for the local church to impact vulnerable families today, for generations, and for eternity through biblical hospitality

This luncheon is targeted at Lead, Executive, Senior, and Missions Pastors. Please email our Church Engagement Coordinator, Vivian Richardson, if you are interested in attending and would like event registration information, or if you would like to refer a pastor to attend: vivian@alongsidefamilies.org

On the agenda:

  • Really good food.
  • A visiting pastor from Ohio whose leadership has helped the local church in his community measurably reduce the number of kids entering foster care.
  • Local pastors who are activating their church members to be on-mission in their own homes through crisis child hosting.
  • How your church can get involved: Simple next steps for your church to launch a crisis child hosting ministry in your church within a few months.
