Immanuel Baptist | Church Fund Partner

Immanuel Baptist Church in Louisville, KY recently joined Lifesong by creating a church adoption fund.

In July, Immanuel Baptist decided to emphasize adoption, by preaching on the topic three weeks in a row! They focused on the vision for adoption, theology of adoption, and orphan care from James 1:27. During this time, they also had an adoption fair where they raised money for their Lifesong adoption fund and had 30 families commit to adopting during their campaign. The time concluded with a question and answer session with foster parents and adoptive families.

IBC has an abundance mentality and have expanding their orphan care ministry further than assisting families financially. The Louisville Orphan Care Initiative (LOCI) team attended these events and felt led to form a relationship with the IBC ministry team. After getting to know the team, LOCI decided to assist in this kick-off by making a donation to their adoption fund.

We feel so blessed to be a part of stories like this! To Him be the glory!
