Pickens Twelve Mile Baptist Association

Dear Pickens-Twelve Mile Baptist Association,

We would love your help sharing an upcoming opportunity with foster families—and those exploring foster care—within your church community.

THRIVE is a free event hosted by Connie Maxwell Children’s Ministries, designed to encourage, equip, and support those who are fostering and those prayerfully discerning whether foster care may be part of their calling. This gathering offers a meaningful time for your church members to be encouraged, connected, and reminded that they are not alone in this important work.

Each THRIVE event includes a meal, approved training hours for licensed foster parents, childcare, door prizes, and time to connect with others who share a heart for children and families.

We’re also honored to welcome Kim Botto as our keynote speaker. Kim frequently speaks on trauma, disability, and neurodivergence and is the author of Boundless Hope for Every Child and host of the Every Child Belongs podcast. Her insight and encouragement will be a highlight of the evening.
