Family + Adoption Monthly Meetings

Family + Adoption Monthly Meetings

Our Love Naples ministry has a Foster + Adoption Meeting on the 3rd Sunday of every month at 11:30am in WC117.

These meetings are for:

  • Those who are already Foster or Adoptive parents – to fellowship and see how we can support them
  • Those who want to become, are thinking about becoming, or are even curious about the possibility of being Foster or Adoptive parents – to provide information about it, give them guidance on how to do it and anything else they want to know about Foster Care and Adoption.
  • Those who don’t want to or can’t or don’t see themselves being Foster or Adoptive parents, but would like to learn of ways they can help, support, serve and love Foster and Adoptive families.

Eden House

There are thousands of women and girls who are victims of sex trafficking in Florida every year. Only 1% of survivors are identified. Identified survivors have an 80% chance of re-entering the life due to receiving inadequate services. Eden House will be a safe place where women can work through the trauma of their past and seek to build a healthy future.

Through a trauma-informed, holistic approach our team will help women heal and develop new healthy patterns. Rooted in the gospel of Jesus Christ and committed to the full mental, emotional, and spiritual healing of each survivor, we operate under the belief that she is the best advocate for her own care.</span>
