CarePortal Update

ByRick Jacobs

CarePortal is continuing to increase its impact across Southwest Florida. Children and families in crisis are being served every week through local churches. Since October 1st, fourteen families have been served through the generosity of our partner churches. As we launched in this region, our first agencies and church partnerships were in Lee and Collier counties. As we look to 2024, we’re trusting for more agencies and churches to engage in Charlotte County. As a matter of fact, Murdock Baptist Church is hosting a gathering on Thursday, Feb. 1. This gathering is a collaboration between Murdock, 4KIDS, CarePortal, Patch Our Planet and FCA Charlotte County. We’re so excited about this meeting and getting others involved in CarePortal. Please be praying Ephesians 3:20 with us for this event, that God would do exceedingly and abundantly more than we could ask, think or imagine.

Until Every Child Has a Home,
