Church Partnerships

Every Community Has Vulnerable Children.

God’s Plan Has Always Been the Local Church.

Across every county in North Carolina, children are experiencing abuse, neglect, and family crisis. God has uniquely positioned the local church in each community to respond with compassion, stability, and hope.

Meet the Need

The Challenge Isn’t Compassion. It’s Knowing Where to Begin.

For most churches, the challenge is not a lack of compassion for vulnerable children and families. The challenge is often knowing where to begin.

At Agape, we serve churches as they take steps to turn compassion into action. Together, we cultivate a foster care culture where families are called, supported, and sustained as they care for children in need.

The Circle of Support

We Come Alongside Churches for Lasting Impact.

At Agape, we believe lasting impact comes through meaningful relationships—not transactions. Our goal is to come alongside churches and community partners across North Carolina with compassion, faithfulness, and sustainable support.

Whether you’re just beginning to explore foster care ministry or actively leading one, Agape is here to help you grow and sustain your impact.
