FOSTER CARE | ADOPTION | CHOOSE LIFE
Five Stones supports the foster and adoptive community in numerous ways, with the mission to “stand up for the fatherless” (Isaiah 1:17) and celebrate life. Our goal is to support those called to foster and adopt and rejoice with those who have chosen life.
Backpack Blessings
Five Stones Church partners with Waxhaw Elementary and Western Union Elementary to supplement meals/snacks for children in need to easily prepare for themselves at home. This supplemental food program runs September through May and is just one way we come alongside families in the community.
South Providence School
South Providence School in downtown Waxhaw is an alternative program for middle and high school students with exceptional needs. The school does not have a PTO to help with fundraising, events, and additional needs. We have the opportunity to come alongside the families and staff of South Providence by celebrating staff birthdays, supplying lunch and snacks for the school several times throughout the year, and helping out around the facility during church SERVE days.
Scholarships are available to applicants answering the call to reach the world with the good news of Jesus' love and grace.
