“Religion that God our Father accepts
as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans …
in their distress…” James 1:27
The purpose of the Adoption/Foster Connection Committee (A/FCC) is to seek ways to relate the members of this congregation to foster children in Cobb County.
First Presbyterian shows concern for foster children in several ways:
collecting toiletry items, prom dresses, disposable diapers, underwear, socks, and new Easter outfits needed by foster children;
providing opportunities for prospective adoptive parents to learn about avenues for adoption in Georgia;
studying the plight of foster children and what individuals can do;
helping the Cobb Foster Parents Association by providing funds to help buy meals for their meetings and childcare assistance during those meetings;
hosting county-wide events such as a conference on child neglect, sponsored by the Coalition for Child Abuse Prevention;
convening the Cobb County Foster Church Network, a consortium of churches in the county concerned for foster children.
