Fostering Hope Nashville – Meal Prep/Delivery
2023-02-18 16:30 - 17:00 | TN
As we continue to partner to support DCS and kids in foster care into 2023, we wanted to make you aware of a weekly opportunity to help the most vulnerable ones in our community — children and teens who have been removed from their homes and placed into the foster system. Can you imagine what it must be like for these kids?
Fostering Hope Nashville has committed to provide meals on Saturday evenings from now until the end of May.
The DCS cottages, which are located on Foster Ave. in Nashville, have kids sleeping there most nights while they await foster care placement. The DCS workers do not have a way to cook meals for the kids besides warming up something in the microwave from the refrigerator/freezer. A few churches in the area along with Tennessee Kids Belong and the governor’s office have come together to try to provide dinner for them each night (as well as breakfast and lunch on the weekends).
We need your help so we can consistently provide Saturday dinner meals for 15 – 20 people. The meal needs to be delivered to the DCS cottage at 5 pm. Meals can be homemade or delivered from a local restaurant through a delivery service like DoorDash.
Will you join us? We have covered the slots through March 4. Consider inviting others to join you — your Connect Group, Bible Study groups, or your close friends.
SIGN UP AND CHOOSE A SATURDAY HERE.
If interested, please go ahead and sign up on the link above. If possible let us know you have taken a date by emailing Pam Flohr at pam.flohr@comcast.net.
Thank you! We love serving foster kids with you!

____________________
When the unthinkable happens and we are made to feel our frailty and helplessness in a fallen, tragic, and senselessly violent world, one of the most important things we can do is come together to seek the Lord in prayer and lament.
This evening, Monday, March 27, from 6:30-7:30 p.m., we will be opening our sanctuary for a community event, open to any and every person who wishes to attend – An Evening of Prayer for The Covenant School Community. Children of all ages are also welcome. We will spend time together expressing our confusion, our sorrow, our anger, and our craving for a hope that can only be found in the promises of the gospel and the resurrection. We are also bringing together as many men and women as we can from church leadership to be available to pray and offer care in more personal ways.
In addition, we wanted to share some valuable resources that might help our families as you navigate the difficult discussions with your children about mass violence.
