During Family Night in the Fall FAM is hosting a book study on Jason Johnson’s book, “ReFraming Foster Care.”
This book study is great for those who feel a pull towards engaging with vulnerable children and families, either through foster care/adoption, becoming a CASA, working in child welfare services or just by understanding more about the challenges vulnerable children in our community face.
More information about the book can be found here
Contact Mandy for details/questions: aryniker@gmail.com

Free Childcare is provided through reservation HERE

FAM is hosting an evening with dinner and childcare in order to hear from you. We want to know how God is moving and what you feel He may be calling you to. We also want to share with you some upcoming classes and plans for FAM.
Do you feel a call to serve families in our community in crisis and help prevent them from entering the foster care system? Are you contemplating foster care or adoption any time in the future? Are you looking for ways to engage that are lower commitment than signing up for foster care? Do you have no idea how you may fit in but for some reason feel drawn towards FAM?
Come join us for dinner and conversation as we explore upcoming ways FAM plans to engage with the Austin community and at Hope Chapel in the coming year. You’ll hear from us, and we want to hear from you. Join us!
