Abide

At Abide, we want to present our guests with opportunities to connect with others, learn, and rest. Abide is designed to serve foster, adoptive, and kinship parents (both current and awaiting placement).

At this free event, you will eat breakfast with other parents like you and listen to an encouraging word from our main speaker. You can stop by our delicious candy bar and coffee cart throughout the day. We will also offer a variety of breakout sessions. We hope this is a time to remember to abide in Jesus, your strength and hope, as you persevere in the hard work of foster care and adoption.

We also have free childcare available for children ages birth through fifth grade(this is for foster, adopted, and biological children). We will provide childcare for the first 50 children that sign up. Please register your children at If you need to cancel your registration, please let us know as soon as possible so we can open that registration to another family.

Two weeks before the event, you will receive an email allowing you to view each breakout session's descriptions and sign up for them ahead of time! We are offering some amazing breakout sessions!
