ARIZONA 1.27 IS A STATE-WIDE MOVEMENT OF CHURCHES WORKING TOGETHER TO SEE EVERY CHILD IN FOSTER CARE PLACED IN A LOVING HOME.

We are looking for churches to join us and champion the cause of foster care and adoption. We work with you to develop a culture of ministry where ongoing recruitment happens and families are equipped and supported.

Arizona 1.27 helps you implement a holistic model where every member of your congregation has a way to engage in caring for children and families.

We ask all churches in the movement to agree to these core commitments:

OUR CORE COMMITMENTS

  • PASTOR

    Each pastor regularly calls the congregation to the ministry of foster care and adoption and commits to creating a culture of caring for the orphan.

  • PARTNER

    Each church designates a staff point person. This Church Partner works with AZ 1.27 to create and sustain a thriving foster and adoption ministry within their church.

  • PATHWAY

    The AZ 1.27 pathway is a sequence of faith-based trainings that equip families and create healthy support systems.
