Orphan Care Ministry
About Us:
The King will reply, "I tell you the truth, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did for me"  (Matthew 25:40).

Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world  (James 1:27).

The TFCA Orphan Care Ministry serves to provide information, support, and encouragement to families with adopted children (be they domestically or internationally adopted), families who are caring for foster children, those interested in international orphan care, and those considering any of the above.
There are so many children in need and so many ways we can care for them!  If you would like to learn about how you can do so, please contact us at orphancare@tfcanglican.org.
