Ministry Team Leader Training

Learn how to build a church based foster care ministry using a proven 4 phase, 17 step plan, so your church can recruit, train, and support families in your community.

Who Is This Training For?

This training is designed for church leaders who will:

  • Lead foster care ministry at their church

  • Build and guide a small leadership team

  • Train and organize volunteers who support foster familes

  • Coordinate with local agencies and community partners

What You Will Learn

In this training, you will learn how to:

Define the problem you are solving

Understand the three issues every community faces:

Capacity

Stability

Quality

Turn those into a clear local message your church can understand

Build the right leadership structure

Secure the Pastoral Endorsement, and recruit help for defined key roles. Learn how to train the team for full effectiveness in launching a foster-support culture and team within your church.

Launch your ministry with clarity

Create a clear church message that stays local and specific. Plan your first "Encounter" meeting as the on-ramp for your church. Provide clear next steps for people who want to foster and people who want to support!

Manage the ministry for the long haul

Build a 12-month plan with milestones. Put simple rhythms in place so families do not foster alone. Keep momentum through steady communication and follow-through.

Why This Matters

Many foster families start with a strong desire to help, but the complexity of the system and the weight of the need can wear families down quickly.

The Church can help change that by building a community that supports families, strengthens stability, and brings hope and belonging to children.
