Youth Rally @ Epic

The weekend following Orphan Sunday, come to the Orphan Sunday Youth Rally and learn how young people can make a difference in the lives of orphans! The event will feature live bands as well as several great speakers who will inspire students to take action on behalf of orphaned children. Opportunities for involvement with missions will be highlighted and you will be able to shop for cool stuff the proceeds of which benefit orphans and local adoptions. Students who attend are encouraged to bring a pair of new shoes to donate to our Shoes for Orphan Souls Fall Shoe Drive. For each pair donated, students will receive a ticket that makes them eligible for the We Heart Orphans drawing which will feature fabulous prizes! Please tell your friends! Hope to see you there!

Orphan Sunday: Voice for the Orphan Event- coming up!

Orphan Sunday is a national day devoted to standing united as Christians on behalf of the fatherless. Hundreds of events will be held on November 7th across America and beyond, all sharing a single goal: that God’s great love for the orphan will find echo in our lives as well. Join Christians here on the Gold Coast as we gather together from churches throughout our region to discuss the plight of orphans both domestically and internationally and what we all can do to help. The event will feature great speakers, live music and the We Heart Orphans Benevolent Bazaar where you can buy unique gifts that support orphan care and help fund local adoptions. Free information and resources will be available on many areas in ministry including praying for orphans, sponsorship, missions to orphans and adoption. Families will also be able to learn more about applying for funding to start an adoption through the Gold Coast Orphan Alliance Community Adoption Grant Fund. We hope you will join us and be a part of what God is doing here in our community on behalf of His precious children. As always, we hope you will encourage your friends and families to join us at this event as well!
