Orphan Care Ministry

The Way Home Ministry

At Peninsula, we believe it is our calling to help care for orphans in our community and the world. There is a place for every Peninsula family to actively care for orphans or to support adoptive and foster families. The mission is building Christian homes through the miracle of adoption and foster care by connecting children and adults to the love of Jesus Christ. At Peninsula, we believe it is our calling to help care for orphans in our community and the world. There is a place for every Peninsula family to actively care for orphans or to support adoptive and foster families.
James 1:27

“Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world.”

Our Youth Connect Groups provide opportunities for developing close relationships while learning how the Bible applies directly to real-life situations today. 

Small groups meet during the school year during Equip Sunday Nights from 5:00-7:00pm. We have dinner, large group teaching, games, and dedicated time for small groups. These groups are divided by age and gender.

Sending Stories

Each family that adopts or fosters has a unique story, we believe, woven together by God. 
These are stories of hope, questions, patience, joy, and love...

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I adopt a child who I know through my neighborhood?
Absolutely! If possible, children’s caseworkers often first look to extended family members or other people who have played a role in the child’s life.
How long does the adoption process usually take?
The adopting process is different for every family. It will depend on where they are adopting from and what organization they are partnered with. On average, it can take anywhere from 1-5 years to fully adopt a child. 
How can I support this ministry?
There are many ways to answer the call God has put forth outside of direct foster and adoption. Your prayers, financial contributions, respite care, meal relief and volunteer work with BCHNC are just some of the ways you can answer the call to action.
