Christ-centered - Hebrews 12:2
We fix our eyes on Christ, both His person and His work, as the
basis for a transformed life on earth and the foundation of eternal
life. Christ is the source of all life and all meaning.
Local Church-focused - Nehemiah 2:17-18
The Old Testament tells of Jerusalem and a call to action for
its people commonly referred to as the Nehemiah principle. Formerly
a city of honor, the holy city was destroyed and unprotected
with broken walls and gates. God's servant Nehemiah called for the
people to rebuild their own walls, caring for and taking
responsibility for their community. Today, Nehemiah's call still
rings true for us. At FaithBridge, we prayerfully seek others who,
like us, see the need and will stand with us in the gap, rebuilding
the families and communities around us.
Relational - Luke 6:13-17
Just as Jesus created relationships among his disciples and
followers, we strive to create connections among all the parties in
the foster care system - county and state government, biological
and foster families, healthcare workers, community service
providers and others.
Servant Leader - Philippians 2
Rather than become caught up in selfish ambitions and desires,
we are humble servants of the Lord Jesus Christ, and our work
fulfills the mission He has called us to do. As Christians, we are
called to have Christ's attitude of self-sacrificing humility and
love for others.
Entrepreneurial - Acts 13:1-3
As an entrepreneurial organization, we have a vision on how to
change foster care in this country, a passion for the ideas and
people who can help us make it happen, a willingness to take risks
to achieve our goals and a commitment to see things
through, in both the peaks and the valleys.
Accountable - II Corinthians 5:9-10
We hold ourselves accountable to the many individuals and
organizations that depend on us, including churches, foster
families, government agencies, etc. In addition, we take seriously
our role as financial steward, ensuring that individual donations
are used to directly fund children's care, activities and
education.
