For our First Saturday Serve, Love Acadiana kicked off National Foster Care Month by supporting foster families and Department of Children and Family Services (DCFS) workers. Dozens of volunteers gathered at Love Acadiana to assemble and then deliver gift baskets, plate lunches, and brightly colored potted plants to foster homes across Acadiana.
Two more teams worked in foster homes in St. Landry parish, installing floors, doors and sinks to relieve some stress from foster parents so they could focus on the children in their care. The love of Jesus was shared among many Saturday.
We also welcomed numerous new volunteers for this outreach, with the local office of Phoenix Metals bringing several employees out to support the cause.
