Sojourn Community Church is partnering with Louisville Orphan Care Initiative (LOCI), a non-profit who believes that the Church and individual Christians are the solution to the foster care problem.  Read HERE to find out how you can get involved in making a difference in the lives of pregnant teens who are in the foster care system.

This is an initiative/partnership with LOCI and the Kentucky Cabinet for Health and Family Services, where LOCI is coordinating with 12-15 churches in Louisville and Southern Indiana.

Our goal is to connect Christian women with foster teens who are pregnant.  The desire is to see Christian women coming alongside and mentoring these young pregnant teens.

Just had a meeting with boys and girls haven. Planning on chapel service for Easter!

LOCI meeting tonight! So much going on in this ministry. So many doors opening!
