Foster and Adoption Support Teams (F.A.S.T.) exist to surround a Foster or Adoptive Family with care. 

• These Support Friends help provide relief for Foster and Adoptive families by meeting needs two times a month.  Examples of needs include meals, transportation, prayer, babysitting, encouragement.  

• Each family has a Team Leader who oversees the Support Friends for the specific family. The Support Friends are a team that work together with the Team Lead and Family to plan how best to support the Foster or Adoptive Family. 

• This is an intentional and relational way for the church to help those families who Foster and/or Adopt. It's the church family living into Galatians 6:2 together: "Bear one another's burdens, and therefore fulfill the law of Christ." 

• Not all are called to Foster and/or Adopt but Support Friends help those who are called. Foster and Adoption Support Teams help the local church to all be involved in Foster and/or Adoption in some way as members of one body.
