"Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world." James 1:27

Orphan Sunday Kickoff of New Orphan Care Ministry

On Sunday, November 8, 2009 we launched our new orphan care ministry at Triad Baptist Church.  The new ministry is named Miles of Hope Orphan Care.  Since November 8 is recognized nationally as Orphan Sunday we thought it was a very appropriate day to start the new ministry.

 
The goals of the new ministry are:

  • Raise awareness and provide education on the plight of the orphan and children in waiting.
  • Hold collections and drives for orphans.
  • Sponsor short term mission trips to orphanages.
  • Support and encourage adoptive families.
