Hey all, come join the Church, DHS, and Community at the LeFlore County Community Gathering to celebrate what has been done, discuss what is being done, and plan what needs to be done in order to end the child welfare crisis in LeFlore County. Food will be served and it's usually the bomb.com. Hope to see you there!
Come join us for a special pre-screening of The Sound of Hope. On July 4th, Angel Studios will release “The Sound of Hope: A Story of Possum Trot,” which tells the story of Bishop and First Lady Donna Martin living in the town of Possum Trot in East Texas. Based on a true story, it follows how the couple, along with 22 families, adopted 77 of the most difficult to place children in their town’s local foster care system and ignited a movement to protect vulnerable children that continues today. As a movement partner, 111Project is hoping to mobilize as many of our faith and child welfare partners their networks to see this film and to learn how to make an impact in solving our states foster care crisis. We believe the film is going to not only be inspiring but speak to the heart of the church being at the center of a solution to the crisis.
