We have a team of high schoolers in Brazil right now, so be praying for them. And pray for our team of over 50 people going on the mission trip to Wyoming next weekend.

Rooted in James 1:27 and reflected throughout all of Scripture, this special day will encourage our church to engage deeply in adoption, foster care, global orphan care and wrap-around family support — central to living as disciples of Christ. We will join churches in over 120 countries that have witnessed the transformative power of this day to catalyze action and celebrate all that God is doing in our communities on behalf of vulnerable children and families. Before and after our Worship Service, we will host information tables where you can learn about getting more involved. These tables will be located in the Guest Services area.

We are excited to be able to allow Connected Foster Care to office out of our church. They provide missional families with the option to welcome vulnerable children through private foster care. Plus, they lead our Southern Baptist churches to support those foster families by meeting their specific needs, providing freezer meals, providing respite care, and many other things. Find out more about their ministry at http://www.abcfm.org/foster-care

Community Rescue Mission is one of our local mission partnerships here in Fort Smith. CRM is a shelter and transitional housing for homeless families with children. They are looking for some of our Community Groups to pick one night per month in 2025 to go over cook the evening meal and serve it. It is 4pm-6pm and only takes 3-4 people. If your Community Group is interested in taking an evening, email Scott Ward at mailto:scott@gabc.church, and he will send you the available dates.
