The Image of God, the Gospel, & the Orphan
Interested in adoption, fostercare, orphan care? Want to go deeper in your ministry? Whether you are a pastor, parent, ministry leader, or just looking for information. This conference is for you.
For 2017 we are excited to partner with the Send Relief team of the North American Mission Board & Winshape Homes. Our objective for this year’s gathering is to maximize our time together to facilitate conversations that matter — conversations that uniquely explore the implications that being made in the image of God have on adoption, fostercare, and orphancare. We have a great lineup of speakers and workshops to help you in this journey. Join us September 29th-30th at First Baptist Church Woodstock in the Atlanta, GA area.
