Women’s ministry aids foster care program
EVERETT — New Life Foursquare Church’s women’s ministry recently donated $4,000 of gifts, clothing and duffel bags to Compass Health’s foster care program.
The toys, art supplies, games and gift cards were used to bring the holidays to the 30 children who receive full-time or weekend respite foster care through Compass Health.
Women who attend the weekly Ladies Life ministry at New Life in Everett collected the gifts in duffel bags which the kids can use if they change foster homes or go to respite care on weekends.
