Train up a child in the way he should go and when he is older he will not depart from it. We believe that loving at risk youth is crucial to not only getting in touch with the heart of Christ by welcoming children into the Kingdom of God, but also essential for the future of these young ones. Confronting difficult issues before they become lifestyles is what we hope to do by loving kids in our city. We are committed to long-term, consistent, Christ-centered outreaches to the orphans and at risk youth in our city.

Over 90% of the kids at Queen Palmer Elementary are on government assisted breakfast and lunch programs. The majority come from single families. You can make a difference in the life of a child by mentoring a child at Queen Palmer Elementary. We are committed to being a consistent positive influence in the lives of young children in the Knob Hill community with one simple act – showing up. We will train you and there is no need to be a qualified teacher or a perfect coach. Your presence in the life of a child will make an incredible difference.
We are also praying for a few more co-leaders to help with this amazing ministry.

Adoptive and Foster Family Support
May 13th, 2013 6:30pm - 8:30pm
We will host an Adoptive and Foster Family Support Night. It is a powerful thing to be able to look someone in the eye and say, "me too." This evening is meant to be a time of rest and refreshment for parents of adopted and foster children as they connect with other parents. We will be providing childcare for the evening in a fun, inviting environment. We will need volunteers to help with childcare during the evening. If you're interested in hanging out with kids for a few hours and giving parents a night out and time to conect and encourage eachother, please email our team at
newlifefosteradopt@gmail.com.
Royal Family Kids Camp
Once a year for one week, we take roughly 70 children in the foster care system, who have a history of abuse or neglect, to the cathedral of the outdoors for a week of positive memories and life changing moments. The stories of how kids are touched by the Father's love expressed through camp aunts and uncles, big campers, and the entire Royal Family is absolutely beautiful. We have finalized our staff this year (2014), but if you want to be involved with clubs and mentors after camp, use the email below to connect with RFK staff.
