Agape of Central Alabama

Agape of Central Alabama Agape's mission is that vulnerable children will find permanency in safe, nurturing families. [email protected]

As a ministry of Jesus Christ, Agape’s mission is that vulnerable and orphaned children find permanency in safe, nurturing families. This mission has led Christians using Agape to serve more than 2,000 children through foster care, and more than 250 children through the permanency of a Christian adoptive family. Hundreds of pregnant women in crisis have been counseled by Agape staff to choose life for their unborn child, and to make the best choice for their future and the baby’s future. Agape is a non-profit 501(c)3 agency whose staff and board are all faithful Christians. There are staff members located in Montgomery, Birmingham and Enterprise. The majority of Agape’s funding is provided through donations from churches and individual Christians, with no client ever being turned away because of their inability to pay for a service. Agape maintains positive and supportive relationships with the Alabama Department of Human Resources and other professional agencies serving children and families. The only real limit on Agape’s ability to serve is the number of churches and individual Christians who step forward to involve themselves in the lives of the hurting children, the vulnerable young women who are pregnant, and the burdened families.

This past Sunday, Steve had the chance to speak at Hunter Hills Church about what it really looks like to come alongside someone.

One thing he challenged us to think about was how we offer help. Instead of saying, “Let me know if you need anything,” we can offer to do something specific.

Can I bring you a meal? Can I help with your yard? Can I take one thing off your plate this week? A specific offer can make it much easier for someone to accept the help they need.

That’s a lot of what Agape does, too. We come alongside children, expectant moms, and foster families in practical ways, especially when life feels hard or overwhelming.

We’re so thankful for churches like Hunter Hills that support Agape and the families we serve!

Watch until the end for the update this foster family had been hoping for. 🥹

A hospital can provide incredible care, but children still need a family to come home to. We’re looking for people willing to open their homes to children with medical or specialized needs.

Agape helps prepare and support foster families every step of the way. You’ll receive training, have people to call when you have questions, and have an Agape team walking alongside you as you advocate for the child in your home.

This Leisch family's story is one example of what that support can look like.

If you’d like to learn more about medically supported foster care and what it could look like for your family, reach out to Angie Blackwell, our director of foster care, at [email protected]

Most of us probably know the story of the Good Samaritan. We know who stopped to help, and who didn’t, and we know how the story ends.

But what about what Jesus said next: “Go and do likewise"?

What does He actually ask of us? Watch the reel to hear how that command connects to the work happening at Agape every day.

Wow! Thanks to the Montgomery Sunrise Rotary Club, more than 20 expectant moms will have a backpack ready for them when they go to the hospital.

They donated the contents for each backpack to help moms feel more comfortable during their hospital stay.

The backpacks also have a practical use after they leave the hospital. Moms making parenting plans receive a diaper bag backpack they can continue using after the baby arrives. Moms making adoption plans receive a traditional backpack filled with items just for them.

Thank you for helping us care for and serve these moms!

For some children, the hardest part isn't a diagnosis. It's growing up in a hospital because there aren't enough families trained to care for them at home.

You don't need to be a nurse or a doctor to be the answer for one of these children. Swipe to see how your home could be the place a child finally belongs. →
