Fostering Tea Session (Hope & David, Joyce & Land)

Image
17 Dec 2016 - Heartfelt sharing by Hope & David, and by Joyce & Land. Hope and David's prayer is that, by obeying the call in James 1:27, they can play a part in restoring a child's belief in "family" . They shared the joys and challenges of fostering their first foster child (a teenager with special needs), and how it brought out the nurturing side of their own young daughters . In the short time their foster child was with them, they were able to help her open up a lot more about what she had gone through. Joyce and Land are not Singaporeans but they stepped forward to foster to serve when they heard about children in Singapore who needed out-of-home care. Currently fostering a boy plus providing respite care for another boy, they shared how fostering revealed their own flaws and weakness e.g impatience etc, but it pushed them to grow and to rely on God even more.
